A lethal mesenteric gastrointestinal stromal tumor: a case report and review of the literature.
Review in International journal of clinical and experimental pathology, 2015. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 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
Gastrointestinal stromal tumors (GISTs) arising from the mesentery are very rare. Here, we report a 53-year old man with a huge lobulated cystic-solid tumor in the left lower quadrant of the abdomen, which had been proved clinically and radiographically. Surgical resection showed that the large mass was noted at the mesentery of small intestine. Grossly, the largest diameter of the mass were measured up to 23 cm, and poorly circumscribed. Histological observation demonstrated it as a malignant GIST with positive CD117 (c-kit) staining. Mitotic figures were frequently observed up to 110 per 50 high power fields. Soon after the surgery, the patient experienced local recurrence with quick growth. The patient received targeted therapy (imatinib mesylate) but had no ideal effect. The patient died nine months after the operation because of rapid disease progression.
