Benign metastasizing leiomyoma presenting with miliary pattern and fatal outcome: Case report with molecular analysis & review of the literature.
Article in Respiratory medicine case reports, 2019. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 12 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
Benign metastasizing leiomyoma (BML) is a rare benign smooth muscle neoplasm that originates in the uterus and metastasizes to distant sites-most commonly the lungs. BMLs are often found incidentally in patients with a history of uterine leiomyoma(s) and tend to be indolent. Occasionally they may be symptomatic and rarely follow an aggressive clinical course. We report an unusual case of BML presenting in a 46-year-old woman as a miliary nodular pattern bilaterally in the lungs and progressive respiratory failure. Her past medical history was significant for uterine "leiomyomas" of at least 9 years' duration. Post mortem histologic evaluation of the uterine and lung lesions revealed benign smooth muscle neoplasms (leiomyomas and BMLs, respectively), and molecular analyses demonstrated identical clonal
