Salvage preoperative embolization of an infratemporal solitary fibrous tumor: A case report with review of the literature.
Article in Medicine, 2018. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 5 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
rationaleHead and Neck Solitary fibrous tumors (SFT) are very rare. They could be misdiagnosed as hemangiopericytomas (HPC). PATIENT CONCERNS: We report a 60 y o lady presenting with sinonasal mass, causing recurrent profuse bleeding. DIAGNOSES: Hemangioperocytomas versus SFT were among the differentials, according to Radiological studies. Upon Biopsy, the diagnosis of SFT has been adopted.
interventionsSalvage pre-operative embolization resulted in bleeding control, bridging the patient to surgery. OUTCOMES: Post-operative course was uneventful, and patient symptoms resolved. LESSONS: This is the first case report of a sinonasal SFT, where pre-operative embolization has been employed as a salvage procedure. This treatment modality is promising, since it controls bleeding, bridges patient to surgery and decreases blood loss during the surgical procedure.
