Diagnosis of hepatic inflammatory pseudotumor by fine-needle biopsy.
Article in Journal of interventional medicine, 2022. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 4 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 pseudotumor (IPT) is a benign lesion characterized by chronic infiltration of inflammatory cells and fibrosis that clinically, radiologically, and pathologically mimics malignancy. However, the epidemiology of IPTs remains unclear. IPTs are often misdiagnosed as malignant lesions because of the lack of characteristic features. We present the case of a 32-year-old man that was misdiagnosed as intrahepatic cholangiocarcinoma by CECT, CEMRI, and CEUS, which was finally confirmed as IPT by fine-needle liver biopsy. In this report, the key factor in the diagnosis of liver inflammatory masses was the presence of hepatic perfusion disorder.
