Peliosis hepatis: an overlooked cause of recurrent abdominal pain.
Article in Oxford medical case reports, 2026. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
Peliosis hepatis (PH) is a rare condition that is characterized by a tumor-like liver lesion with blood-filled cavities in the liver parenchyma. When used solely, imaging modalities cannot differentiate PH from liver carcinoma, metastatic deposits and liver abscess. We herein present a case of a 37-year-old male patient presenting for recurrent bouts of abdominal pain with no history of liver diseases or recent drug usage. Ultrasound, CT scan and MRI demonstrated the presence of a liver lesion but failed to make an accurate diagnosis of the lesion. An ultrasound-guided liver biopsy followed by laparoscopy were performed. Histopathology revealed multiple sinusoidal dilatations with blood-filled cystic spaces, corroborating a diagnosis of PH. The patient performed clinically well after surgery and was followed-up in 1 year with good recovery. His abdominal pain had completely subsided.
