Adult-Type Rhabdomyoma of the Larynx in Birt-Hogg-Dubé Syndrome: Evidence for a Real Association.
Article in Head and neck pathology, 2019. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 6 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
The autosomal dominant Birt-Hogg-Dubé syndrome is known to be associated with skin, lung and kidney lesions. It is caused by heterozygous germline mutations in the folliculin gene and has a high penetrance. We report the case of a 51 year old woman with Birt-Hogg-Dubé syndrome who presented with a laryngeal mass. Imaging confirmed a mass centered on the piriform sinus and following excision histological examination confirmed the lesion was composed of polygonal cells with abundant eosinophilic cytoplasm consistent with a rhabdomyoma. Laryngeal rhabdomyoma is rare condition and has not been previously described in association with Birt-Hogg-Dubé. In patients with Birt-Hogg-Dubé syndrome who develop upper aerodigestive tract symptoms secondary to mass lesion an adult-type rhabdomyoma might be considered as a differential, with endoscopic excision being the treatment of choice.
