Paraganglioma of the vulva: a case report and review of the literature.
Review in International journal of clinical and experimental pathology, 2013. 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
Paraganglioma is a neuroendocrine neoplasm, which is extremely rare in the vulva and only one case has been reported. Here we present a case of vulvar paraganglioma in a 48-year-old woman and a literature review. The patient found a lump located in the genitals below the symphysis pubis 3 months before presentation when she complained that the lump was increasing in size. A 3.2 cm x 2.3 cm x 1.5 cm nodule was excised from subcutaneous soft tissue in the vulva. Microscopy showed a diversity of cell morphologies and structures in the rich vascular network of the tumor separated the chief cells into round cell nests (Zellballen pattern). Some areas of the tumor presented epithelioid and spindle-shaped cells with increased cell density and indistinct structural characteristics. Hyaline degeneration of collagen fibers or mucoid degeneration was found in tumor interstitium. Immunohistochemical staining showed diffused expression of synaptophysin in the chief cells, focal expression of S-100 protein in the sustentacular cells and high expression of CD34 in the vascular components. Based on morphological and immunohistochemical results, a rare paraganglioma of the vulva was diagnosed.
