Complete resection of isolated hepatic metastatic uveal melanoma with a notably long disease-free period: A case report and review of the literature.

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
Although uveal melanoma frequently metastasizes to the liver, cases with a large solitary lesion with spontaneous intratumoral hemorrhage and necrosis are rarely encountered. Here, we report a case of metastatic hepatic melanoma that occurred in a 45-year-old Chinese male. The patient complained of the feeling of a full stomach for a month. Ten years earlier, the patient had undergone left ocular enucleation and artificial eye implantation at a different hospital. Postoperative pathology revealed choroidal melanoma without intrascleral or vascular involvement. Abdominal magnetic resonance imaging and computed tomography scan revealed a solitary lesion measuring 12 cm in diameter. A whole-body F-18-fluoro-2-deoxyglucose (FDG) positron emission tomography/computed tomography scan demonstrated a large solitary nodule with increased FDG uptake. Computed tomography angiography revealed that the huge mass had partially ruptured and was bleeding spontaneously. For diagnostic and therapeutic purposes, right hepatectomy was performed and histological examination revealed that the tumor was metastatic melanoma.
