Small bowel obstruction due to intraluminal metastasis from malignant melanoma.
Article in Journal of surgical case reports, 2019. 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
The most common form of presentation of malignant melanoma is cutaneous. However, it is important to notice that it can occur in any part of the body, mostly from metastatic route. Gastrointestinal forms of symptomatic metastasis are rare, making it sometimes difficult to diagnose. We present a rare case of an 84-year-old female with a small bowel obstruction due to melanoma metastasis. She was treated with an enterectomy, with no surgical or post-operative complications. Although surgery should be reserved from symptomatic patients, some authors refer to it as a palliative treatment with improvement in long-term survival.
