Pediatric Inflammatory Myofibroblastic Tumor of the Liver: A Rare Cause of Portal Hypertension.
Article in ACG case reports journal, 2019. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 6 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
Hepatic inflammatory pseudotumors or myofibroblastic tumors are benign neoplasms rarely seen in children. We report a case of a previously healthy 10-year-old girl with prolonged fever and abdominal pain who was found to have hepatosplenomegaly and pancytopenia. Imaging revealed a periportal mass along with thrombosis of portal vein and splenomegaly. Liver biopsy showed normal hepatic architecture with no evidence of cirrhosis. She underwent endoscopic banding of esophageal varices. Biopsy of the mass was suggestive of inflammatory myofibroblastic tumor without malignant changes. She has been successfully managed with nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drug and pulse steroids with resolution of symptoms and decrease in size of the tumor with more than 2 years of follow-up.
