Sclerosing angiomatoid nodular transformation of the spleen: A case report and literature review.
Article in Oncology letters, 2016. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 16 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
Sclerosing angiomatoid nodular transformation (SANT) is a rare benign splenic vascular lesion. Since it was first defined in 2004, a total of 132 cases of SANT have been reported in ~50 studies in the English literature. However, it remains difficult to form a definitive pre-operative differential diagnosis of SANT compared with other splenic tumors or malignant lesions. The present study reports a pathologically proven case of SANT in a 29-year-old man who initially presented with left upper quadrant and back discomfort. The study also provides a review of the current knowledge on the condition, including the clinical profile, imaging features, cytological features, differential diagnosis and treatment of SANT. The most important distinguishing features of SANT are its typical vascular character and lack of other features that are typical of a granuloma. A splenectomy is required and the diagnosis is based on pathological analysis.
