Primary hepatic epithelioid hemangioendothelioma masquerading as metastases: A rare case report.
Article in Radiology case reports, 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
Epithelioid hemangioendothelioma (EHE) of the liver is an extremely rare malignant tumor of vascular origin, representing less than 1 % of all vascular tumors. Nearly 260 cases have been reported in English literature. Radiologically it is seen as multifocal lesions. It can be seen at different sites like lungs, bones, lymph nodes, breasts, and soft tissue. Often it is misdiagnosed with metastases, cholangiocarcinoma, or angiosarcoma. No definite treatment protocol is available due to its rarity, however, these malignancies are treated by radical resection of the tumor or liver transplant and/or chemotherapy. Here we present a primary hepatic epithelioid hemangioendothelioma (HEHE) which was mimicking metastases in a 42-year-old male who was treated with chemotherapy and radiotherapy. Sadly the patient expired after 1 year of complete course of treatment. Imaging features can help to improve the diagnostic accuracy of this tumor.
