Hibernoma Around Shoulder Joint: Diagnosis and Surgical Treatment of a Rare Presentation.

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
Introduction: Hibernomas are uncommon benign proliferations arising from the adipocytes of brown fat usually occurring over back, neck, shoulder, and thighs. It is an underreported entity often misdiagnosed as a lipoma. Case Report: We report a case of an otherwise healthy thirty-four-year-old male who presented with a painless swelling, with no preceding trauma, involving the right shoulder joint of three months duration. MRI revealed it to be a fatty intense lesion arising within the anterior fibers of the right deltoid. The tumor was removed en-masse with wide local excision through the deltopectoral route. The histopathology of the resected tumor was consistent with the diagnosis of hibernoma. The patient recovered the previously hindered movements at the shoulder joint 2 weeks post-operatively. Conclusion: Hibernoma should be considered as a differential diagnosis for soft tissue tumors occurring in the above-mentioned sites. It can be completely resected surgically and no recurrences post-excision have been reported till date.
