Extramedullary plasmacytoma of the ureter in an HIV-positive patient.
Article in International cancer conference journal, 2017. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 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
A 45-year-old Japanese man, who was undergoing HIV infection treatment, was aware that he had gross hematuria, and he was diagnosed as having a ureteral tumor by radiographic examination. Therefore, he was referred to our department for further examination and treatment. We considered that the ureteral tumor was a urothelial carcinoma (cT2N0M0) because of the left ureteral tumor and urine cytology results, and thus, laparoscopic ureteronephrectomy was performed. The pathological diagnosis was a solitary extramedullary plasmacytoma (EMP) of the ureter. Currently, he is alive and free of disease at 7 months postoperatively. EMP develops in the nasal cavity, paranasal cavity, gastrointestinal tract, lung, thyroid, eye socket, lymph node, and various organs, but the ureter is an extremely rare site of EMP. In addition, the patient had an HIV infection. To the best of our knowledge, this is the first case of EMP of the ureter in an HIV-positive patient.
