Splenic localization of the peritoneal mesothelioma: case report and literature revue.
Review in Updates in surgery, 2012. 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
Peritoneal mesothelioma is a rare form of malignant mesothelioma, making up <30% of diagnosed mesothelioma cases. Because of a lack of specific symptoms (abdominal pain, abdominal swelling), normally it is diagnosed in advanced stages, sometimes in a surgical emergency (intestinal obstruction, severe ascites) and occasionally during image procedures or laparoscopy which can show a mass developing from peritoneal mesothelium surfaces, or an accumulation of small irregularities that may be tumors or plaques. The reported case refers to a particular localization of a peritoneal mesothelioma, the spleen, discovered only after a splenectomy, due to the clinical and radiological suspect of a rupture.
