Migrating pseudolipoma of Glisson's capsule: A case report.
Article in Radiology case reports, 2024. 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
Pseudolipoma of Glisson's capsule is a rare, benign subcapsular liver lesion that typically occurs in older adult men. It comprises degenerated fat tissue that likely originates from detached mesothelial appendages or degenerated liver lipomas. We report the case of a 58-year-old female patient with a gastric malignant tumor after admission. No lesions were found in the liver capsule before surgery. During postoperative reviews from 2015 to 2018, new dense, fatty lesions were found under the liver capsule, and highly unusually, the lesions moved under the liver capsule over time. To the best of our knowledge, only 1 other case has been reported of a pseudolipoma of Glisson's capsule that migrated over time. This supports the hypothesis that migrating mesothelial attachments form Glisson capsule pseudolipomas. This case report aims to review liver capsule anatomy, explain why the liver is particularly susceptible to this phenomenon, and present information to aid the diagnosis of fat-containing hepatic lesions by providing a unique perspective on certain pathologies affecting the liver.
