[Leiomyomatosis of the colon: case report and literature review].
Article in Der Pathologe, 2007. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 5 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
We present the findings of a 67 year old male patient with an intestinal leiomyomatosis localized in the rectum. To our knowledge, this is the fifth case of intestinal leiomyomatosis reported so far. The most characteristic findings of this rare disease include a cuff-like tumorous proliferation of smooth muscle within the bowel wall which may extend into extramural tissue and result in a stenosis of a longer bowel segment. Because of severe obstructive symptoms over 5 years, the patient had to undergo surgery with resection of the rectum. The histological examination revealed a morphology and immunophenotype comparable to usual leiomyomas with the exception of hyalinosis-like changes in the blood vessels, apparently a special feature of leiomyomatosis. A novel finding in our case was the occurrence of skeinoid fibers which have so far only been reported in gastrointestinal stromal tumors.
