A solitary fibrous tumor in the pelvic cavity of a patient with Doege-Potter syndrome: a case report.
Article in Surgical case reports, 2019. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 10 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
backgroundA solitary fibrous tumor (SFT) is a mesenchymal lesion, which commonly develops in the thorax. Non-islet cell hypoglycemia is a rare paraneoplastic phenomenon caused by an extra-pancreatic tumor. We report a rare case of a pelvic SFT with severe hypoglycemia, which was considered to be Doege-Potter syndrome. CASE PRESENTATION: A 72-year-old man was referred to our hospital for treatment of hypoglycemia and a large pelvic tumor. His blood glucose level was 52 mg/dl; serum insulin level, 1.0 μIU/ml; C-peptide level, 0.2 ng/ml; and insulin-like growth factor-I (IGF-I) level, 31 ng/ml. Contrast-enhanced computed tomography (CT) showed a 13-cm mass in the pelvic cavity. Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) revealed a lobulated tumor with iso- and high-intensity areas combined in T2-weighted images. No clear invasion to any adjacent organs was identified. The tumor was resected, and hypoglycemic symptoms disappeared immediately. Pathological diagnosis was an SFT with malignant potential that secreted IGF-II and caused hypoglycemia. There has been no tumor recurrence during the 1 year of follow-up.
conclusionNon-islet cell tumor hypoglycemia should be considered in the differential diagnosis of patients presenting with tumors and hypoglycemia.
