Cancer Genes Mutations in Benign Metastasizing Leiomyoma: A Case Report.
Article in Cureus, 2019. 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
Benign metastasizing leiomyoma is a very uncommon clinicopathologic entity with unknown molecular pathogenesis. We present a case of a 40-year-old woman who has a history of surgical resection of a large uterine leiomyoma and then subsequently presented with benign metastasizing leiomyomas to her lungs. Due to her tumor being estrogen receptor (ER) positive and progesterone receptor (PR) positive, she was empirically treated with anastrozole with sustained clinical benefit. Molecular studies with Foundation One testing showed low mutational burden and mutational variants in five known cancer genes. Our findings have important clinical and pathogenetic implication for metastasizing uterine leiomyoma.
