ALK Negative Inflammatory Myofibroblastic Tumor Synchronous with Classical Hodgkin Lymphoma.
Article in Case reports in oncology. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 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
Inflammatory myofibroblastic tumor or inflammatory pseudotumor was first described by Brunn in 1932. Umiker et al. named it so in 1954 for its ability to mimic malignancy clinically and radiologically [Med Pediatr Oncol 2000; 35(5): 484-7]. This tumor, characterized by its rareness, affects mainly the lung and the orbit. Histologically, the tumor is characterized by the presence of fibroblasts, myofibroblasts, polymorphs, lymphocytes, and neutrophils. This case report and review of literature present a male patient, 37 years old, with a bulky mediastinal lesion at the topography of the 4th rib. Histopathology reveals Hodgkin's Lymphoma (HL) concomitant with inflammatory myofibroblastic tumor (IMT). This report aims to emphasize the relevance of differential diagnoses to a better medical assistance. To the best of our knowledge, a case with this characteristic has never been seen before.
