A rare case of giant hepatic angiomyolipoma with subcapsular rupture.
Article in Frontiers in surgery, 2023. 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 angiomyolipoma (HAML) is a rare mesenchymal neoplasm that predominantly affects middle-aged women. In this study, we present a case of a 49-year-old woman with a giant HAML accompanied by spontaneous subcapsular rupture. The patient initially experienced nausea and abdominal distention, followed by an enlargement of the upper abdominal circumference. Laboratory examination revealed decreased serum hemoglobin, while tumor biomarkers were within normal ranges. Imaging studies, such as abdominal ultrasound and contrast-enhanced computed tomography (CT), demonstrated a large upper abdominal mass with heterogeneous density and hypervascularity. The tumor appeared to have invaded the left liver, raising concerns about possible malignancy. Subsequent positron-emission tomography/CT confirmed increased fluorodeoxyglucose uptake in the mass. Laparoscopic exploration revealed a protruding, well-encapsulated tumor from the left liver, exhibiting subcapsular hemorrhage. Surgical resection of the tumor and the left liver was performed, leading to a successful outcome.
