IgG4-related hepatic inflammatory pseudotumour: could MRI suggest the correct diagnosis?
Article in BMJ case reports, 2021. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 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
We report a case of a 62-year-old woman, HIV positive, with a 3-week history of jaundice and elevated cholestatic enzymes. Imaging studies displayed intrahepatic biliary dilatation and a central liver lesion. Pathology described lesions of active cholangitis, lymphoplasmacytic infiltration and fibrosis, suggesting a hepatic inflammatory pseudotumour (IPT) IgG4 related. IgG4-related lymphoplasmacytic form of IPT belongs to IgG4-related diseases. We discuss the importance to include IgG4-related hepatic IPT as part of the differential diagnosis of any liver lesion, highlighting potential imaging clues that may help in establishing the correct diagnosis.
