Soft Tissue Primary Neuroendocrine Tumor: A Case Report.
Article in The American journal of case reports, 2018. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper.
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
BACKGROUND Neuroendocrine tumors found in skin or soft tissues usually represent metastasis from other organs and are considered late manifestations of disease. Therefore, primary cutaneous and soft tissue neuroendocrine tumors are extremely rare. CASE REPORT We report a case of a 48-year-old male with a neuroendocrine tumor occurring in the subcutaneous abdominal fat, which had an echographic appearance of a vascular malformation. The finding was diagnosed as compatible with neuroendocrine tumor based on histopathological and immunohistochemical studies. No other sites of possible internal origin were detected on supplementary investigations. CONCLUSIONS Soft tissue neuroendocrine tumors may have an appearance on imaging studies that challenge physicians to make a correct diagnosis. Despite the rarity of these tumors, they should be included in the differential diagnosis of other soft tissue masses.
