Haemangiopericytoma of the greater omentum: a rare tumour requiring long-term follow-up.
Article in Journal of surgical case reports, 2018. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 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
Haemangiopericytomas (HPC) are highly vascularized tumours located in any part of the body where capillaries can be found. Since 2002, they have been re-classified under the umbrella 'extrapleural Solitary Fibrous Tumour (SFT)' and the term HPC is nowadays used to describe a growth pattern rather than a clinical entity. Their biological behaviour varies and they require a long-term follow-up since they may recur or metastasise several years after successful treatment. We present the case of a gentleman with HPC of the greater omentum initially appeared in 1998. HPC rarely develops in the greater omentum and only 20 cases have been described in the literature till today. Despite complete excision the mass re-appeared in 2011 and 2017, 13 and 19 years after initial treatment. Surgical management included en bloc excision of three lesions along with greater omentum. No further treatment was required.
