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
We present a case of a solitary fibrous tumour (SFT) resembling an aggressive angiomyxoma/liposarcoma on radiological imaging, causing significant diagnostic challenges preoperatively. A 76-year-old male was incidentally found to have a large pelvic mass on a CT scan. Further evaluation with an MRI scan confirmed a presacral mass containing fat and soft tissue components. It was inseparable from the sacrococcygeal spine, rectal serosa and the posterior wall of the urinary bladder, but no evidence of invasion was seen. A prominent vascular pedicle arising from the epidural vasculature was also noted. Differentials discussed at the multidisciplinary tumour board were an aggressive angiomyxoma versus a liposarcoma. The patient underwent wide resection of the pelvic tumour, anterior resection and end colostomy. Intraoperatively, a large 20 cm pelvic mass involving the sigmoid mesocolon and presacral fascia was found. Final histology reported an SFT with extensive adipocytic metaplasia.
