Xanthogranulomatus inflammatory lesion mimicker of malignancy: A clinicopathological study from rural India.
Article in Northern clinics of Istanbul, 2021. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 5 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
objectiveXanthogranulomatus inflammation is an uncommon variant of chronic inflammation and a well-established pathological entity involving various organs and systems. It may be associated with infection and obstruction, defective lipid transport, immunological disturbances, and often confused as a malignant neoplasm. The confirmative diagnosis is made on histopathology.
methodsThis is a retrospective study conducted from January 2008 to April 2020 on histopathologically diagnosed xanthogranulomatus lesions. All the relevant available data regarding age, sex, and organ involvement were collected from histopathology lab records. The macroscopic and microscopic evaluation of cases was also done. This study was aimed to determine the significance of histopathology in the diagnosis of xanthogranulomatus lesions, revealing pathological changes, and clinicopathological correlation.
resultsIn the current study, there were 93 cases of xanthogranulomatus inflammatory lesion. Gall bladder was frequently involved 70 (75.27%), followed by 5 (5.37%) kidney, gastrointestinal Tract 6 (3 [3.23%] cases in colon and 3 [3.23%] in appendix, respectively), and others. The maximum number of cases was in the age group of 31-40 years with 24 (25.80%) cases. The female to male sex ratio was 2.3:1.
conclusionAwareness and knowledge of xanthogranulomatus inflammatory lesion is significant to the pathologist and surgeon to prevent extensive surgery. This lesion often mimics as malignancy and confirmatory diagnosis is made on histopathology. Thus, every excised specimen must be examined histopathologically to diagnose and rule out differential.
