Goblet cell carcinoid of the rectum with lymph node metastasis: report of a case.
Article in Surgery today, 2011. 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 report an unusual case of goblet cell carcinoid (GCC) of the rectum. A 75-year-old man was admitted to our hospital with anal bleeding, and a hard tumor was felt on the anterior wall of the lower rectum during rectal examination. We performed colonoscopy, and found a 30-mm type 2 tumor in the lower rectum and anal canal. Histological examination of biopsies revealed rectal adenocarcinoma. Based on these findings, we diagnosed rectal adenocarcinoma and performed Miles' operation with lymph node dissection. Histological examination revealed an invasive lesion composed of signet-ring-like cells. Seven regional lymph node metastases were seen microscopically. The tumor produced copious mucin, which was stained with Alcian blue. Immunohistochemistry was positive for synaptophysin, chromogranin A, CD56, carcinoembryonic antigen, p53, Ki-67, E-cadherin, and cytokeratin 20. The final diagnosis was GCC of the rectum.
