β-Catenin-activated inflammatory hepatocellular adenoma with pigmentation and atypical features: a case report.

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
Hepatocellular adenomas are rare diseases, defined as benign liver neoplasms composed of cells with hepatocellular differentiation. Differential diagnosis of hepatocellular adenoma from other lesions, including focal nodular hyperplasia and hepatocellular carcinoma, is crucial to determine treatment strategy. We describe a case of β-catenin-activated inflammatory hepatocellular adenoma with malignant transformation. A 50-year-old man with a suspected liver tumor, based on abdominal ultrasonography findings, was referred to our hospital. Contrast-enhanced computed tomography and magnetic resonance imaging revealed a liver tumor in S2 which was enhanced in the arterial phase to the delayed phase. Based on diagnostic imaging findings, hepatocellular adenoma or focal nodular hyperplasia was suspected. We considered the possibility of malignant potential because of the enlargement of the lesion. Thus, we performed a laparoscopic hepatectomy. Histological examination showed pigment deposition in the hepatocytes, which was determined to be lipofuscin. Mild nuclear swelling and atypia in the tumor area indicated nodular growth. Based on the histological and immunohistochemical findings, the diagnosis was ꞵ-catenin-activated inflammatory hepatocellular adenoma with atypical features. The imaging features of hepatocellular adenoma and focal nodular hyperplasia are similar, but if the tumor tends to grow, surgical treatment should be performed because of the possibility of malignant hepatocellular adenoma.
