The clinicopathological characterization of small hepatocellular carcinoma with fibrous stroma.

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
Recent studies emphasized the significance of fibrous stroma affecting tumor biology in hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC). To further clarify fibrous stroma's significance, this study investigated the clinicopathological characteristics of HCC with fibrous stroma. A total of 214 nodules of HCC smaller than 3 cm in diameter were analyzed, and 22 (10%) were regarded as HCC with fibrous stroma. Most cases of HCC with fibrous stroma were the simple nodular type without a fibrous capsule, and histologically well- or moderately-differentiated. A subset of the scirrhous variant of HCC was included in this category, and steatohepatitic features, such as Mallory-Denk body formation and lymphoid infiltrates, were also frequently found. Foci with a histological appearance corresponding to dysplastic nodules and/or early HCC were rarely observed in HCC with fibrous stroma, suggesting that some cases occurred via a
