Malakoplakia in Association with Adenocarcinoma of Sigmoid Colon; A Case Report.
Article in Iranian journal of pathology, 2019. 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
Malakoplakia is a rare granulomatous disease of the genitourinary system. Gastrointestinal tract is the second most common site of involvement. It usually mimics a malignancy but its association with adenocarcinoma has been rarely reported. A 59-year-old male patient with the history of weight loss and rectal bleeding for two months prior to administration was referred to our hospital. Pre-operative CT scan revealed a large sigmoid colon mass with the extension and invasion to the serosal surface as well as multiple regional metastatic lymph nodes. The patient underwent sigmoidectomy with the primary pathologic diagnosis of adenocarcinoma. Pathologic examination revealed a moderately differentiated adenocarcinoma invading peri-colic adipose tissue and inflammatory reaction compatible with malakoplakia at the invasive borders of the tumor with the extension to the serosal surface. In the patients with gastrointestinal malakoplakia, the presence of possible adjacent malignancy should be screened. The possibility of over-staging should also be considered for adenocarcinoma cases in association with malakoplakia.
