Primary hepatic angiosarcoma with noncirrhotic portal hypertension: A case report.
Article in Frontiers in oncology, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 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
Background: Primary hepatic angiosarcoma (PHA) is a rare malignant tumor of mesothelial tissue origin in the liver. The diagnosis of PHA relies on pathology, and it is frequently misdiagnosed as multiple hepatic hemangioma. Noncirrhotic portal hypertension is a relatively rare pathological manifestation, and there are few reports of PHA as an uncommon cause of noncirrhotic portal hypertension. Case summary: A 36-year-old male was admitted with abnormal liver function and suspected drug-induced liver injury (DILI), initially manifesting as multifocal hepatic hemangioma. The liver biopsy revealed features of noncirrhotic portal hypertension (NCPH), and the patient was eventually diagnosed with multifocal hepatic angiosarcoma. Conclusion: Patients with PHA may present with NCPH in the liver due to injury to hepatic sinusoids; therefore, it is necessary to consider the possibility of unsampled vascular malignancy when hepatic masses are identified, and the histology is consistent with PHA.
