Clear cell chondrosarcoma of the larynx.
Article in BMJ case reports, 2018. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 4 papers, 1 of them a synthesis that pooled it.
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
Chondrosarcomas represent a group of malignant tumours composed of cells producing cartilage, and clear cell chondrosarcomas (CCC) represent a variant of these. A rare case of a laryngeal CCC is presented. The patient was a 70-year-old man who presented with a 6-week history of throat pain, worsening dysphonia and a lump in the neck. Examination revealed a level 3 neck mass and positron emission tomography imaging revealed a metabolically active right laryngeal mass. Biopsies revealed a cartilaginous neoplasm. The patient underwent total laryngectomy, and the pathology confirmed CCC of the larynx. Chondrosarcomas are the most common type of sarcoma in the larynx but the CCC variant is rare. CCC are usually low-grade tumours affecting long bones, with a male predominance. Less than six cases have been described in the literature affecting the larynx. Management of these malignancies is complete surgical excision given the high risk of local recurrence.
