A surgical resection of hepatic granuloma mimicking intrahepatic cholangiocarcinoma: a case report.
Article in International cancer conference journal, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 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 granuloma is relatively rare, and benign tumor of the liver. Herein, we report an unusual case of hepatic granuloma mimicking intrahepatic cholangiocarcinoma (ICC). An 82-year-old woman with a history of viral hepatitis B was admitted for investigation of liver mass in the left lobe. Dynamic computed tomography revealed a mostly hypo-enhancing main tumor with a peripheral ring enhancement, and positron emission tomography demonstrated localized an abnormal accumulation of fludeoxyglucose. Considering the possibility of malignant disease, extended left hepatectomy was performed. The resected tumor was macroscopically a periductal infiltrating nodular type, 4.5 × 3.6 cm in diameter. The pathological findings showed that granuloma and coagulative necrosis were present, and diagnosis of hepatic granuloma was confirmed. Pathological studies demonstrated that periodic acid-Schiff stain, Grocott-Gomori stain and Ziehl-Neelsen stain were all negative in the lesion.
