Hepatic Inflammatory Pseudotumor: An Important Differential Diagnosis in Patients With a History of Previous Biliary Procedures.
Article in ACG case reports journal, 2019. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 8 papers.
What it found
Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.
The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.
The trial behind it
Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.
Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract
Hepatic inflammatory pseudotumors (IPTs) are rare lesions that mimic malignancy clinically, radiologically, and pathologically. The pathophysiology is unknown, and no criteria exist for diagnosis. This series includes 3 cases: 1 patient had recent biliary drainage with bile duct stent placement, and the other 2 patients had hepatic abscess formation before IPT development, which further supports that hepatic IPTs develop in patients with underlying triggers of liver inflammation and injury, including infections and/or bile leakage into the parenchyma. All 3 patients were successfully treated with antibiotics, sparing them surgical intervention. Follow-up showed complete resolution, and none developed recurrences or malignancies.
