Spontaneous retroperitoneal hemorrhage in a mediastinal tumor in a patient with polymyositis: a case report.
Article in The Kaohsiung journal of medical sciences, 2008. 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
Spontaneous retroperitoneal hemorrhage is a lethal cause of acute abdomen that is most frequently related to drugs, coagulopathy and intra-abdominal tumors. In patients with polymyositis and dermatomyositis, acute abdomen is attributed to intestinal vasculitis causing ischemia, ulceration or perforation. Spontaneous retroperitoneal hemorrhage, however, has rarely been reported in patients with polymyositis. We report the case of a 65-year-old woman with newly diagnosed polymyositis and suspected thymoma who suffered from spontaneous retroperitoneal hemorrhage. She experienced two massive retroperitoneal hemorrhage episodes within 24 hours, which resulted in shock and required emergent angiographic embolization. There was no evidence of tumor, vasculitis or aneurysm from abdominal angiography and computed tomography.
