Cholangiolocarcinoma with Ductal Plate Malformation Pattern: A 6-Year Follow-Up.
Article in Surgical case reports, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper.
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
introductionCholangiolocarcinoma (CLC) with ductal plate malformation (DPM) is a rare primary liver cancer originating from the canals of Hering. It often exhibits intermediate behavior between hepatocellular carcinoma and intrahepatic cholangiocarcinoma. Diagnosing CLC with DPM is challenging due to overlapping imaging features with other liver malignancies. CASE PRESENTATION: An 82-year-old man under surveillance for bladder cancer was incidentally found to have a liver nodule in segment 8. Over 6 years, the lesion grew from 10 mm to 41 mm and showed dynamic changes on imaging. Despite two inconclusive biopsies, a diagnosis of CLC with DPM was confirmed after a third biopsy and consultation with a specialized institution. The patient underwent a right hepatectomy, and pathological examination confirmed CLC with DPM. No evidence of recurrence was observed 19 months post-surgery.
conclusionsThis case underscores the importance of long-term follow-up and a multidisciplinary approach in managing rare hepatic malignancies. The clinical course provides valuable insights into the progression of CLC with DPM and may aid in diagnosing similar challenging cases.
