Epithelioid malignant mesothelioma presenting with features of gastric tumor in a child.
Article in International journal of clinical and experimental pathology, 2014. 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
Localized malignant mesothelioma is very uncommon and mainly arises in pleura and peritoneum, and preferentially occurs in older adults. In this article, we report a case of a Localized malignant mesothelioma that was developed in the stomach of a 6-year-old boy. This boy was admitted to hospital for anemia. An epigastric mass was palpated through systemic physical examination and MR scanning demonstrated an 8×6 cm-sized, well-defined elliptic mass at gastric corpus. Partial resection of the stomach was performed for this boy and no nodules were found on the liver, peritoneum, and other abdominal sites in surgery. In view of the morphological and immunohistochemical findings, a diagnosis of localized malignant mesothelioma, epithelial type was made. This is the first case report of localized malignant mesothelioma arising in the stomach of a child. Accumulation of more cases of malignant mesothelioma involving gastrointestinal tract and longer follow-up of the patients are necessary to further characterize the features of this rare disease.
