Solitary fibrous tumor in the liver: case report and literature review.
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 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
backgroundSolitary fibrous tumors (SFTs) are uncommon mesenchymal neoplasms that present most commonly at intrathoracic sites. SFTs of the liver are rare, with only a few having been reported in the English-language literature. We report a rare case of a hepatic SFT and literature review. CASE PRESENTATION: A 49-year-old woman underwent surgery for a cranial hemangiopericytoma two decades previously. She currently presented with malaise. Abdominal computed tomography (CT) showed a huge, sharply demarcated mass in the anterior segment of the liver. Tumor marker levels were within the normal range. Following central bisegmentectomy of the liver, histological examination of the specimen revealed that the tumor was composed of spindle and fibroblast-like cells with collagenous stroma. Immunohistochemically, the spindle cells were negative for CD34 but positive for STAT6. The NAB2-STAT6 fusion gene was detected by the reverse transcription polymerase chain reaction. A diagnosis of SFT was thus confirmed histopathologically and genetically.
conclusionsThe SFT of the liver is an uncommon finding. Because there are no specific imaging features, it is difficult to diagnose the hepatic SFT preoperatively. We consider that careful surgical resection and postoperative follow-up are necessary for hepatic SFTs.
