Hepatic Angiosarcoma: A Challenging Diagnosis.
Article in Cureus, 2018. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 16 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
Hepatic angiosarcoma (HA) accounts for 2% of primary liver tumors. Though rare, it is exceptionally deadly. The initial presentation of HA is nonspecific and no tumor markers have been associated with it. In general, liver function is maintained until later stages of the disease, often leading to diagnosis once the disease is already advanced or metastatic. In this report, we present the case of a 54-year-old male whose vague symptoms and non-diagnostic liver biopsy delayed the diagnosis of a rapidly progressing HA.
