Trousseau's syndrome associated with pulmonary pleomorphic carcinoma exhibiting aggressive features: A case report.
Article in Molecular and clinical oncology, 2020. 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
Trousseau's syndrome is characterized as an unexpected, cancer-related thrombotic event, such as a cerebral infarction or a deep vein thrombosis/pulmonary embolism. We describe the first reported case of Trousseau's syndrome with pulmonary pleomorphic carcinoma and aggressive features. A 74 year-old man presenting with a pulmonary mass, which was identified as pleomorphic carcinoma with extensive lymph node involvement, in the left lower lobe, underwent a left lower lobectomy. Immunohistochemical analysis revealed that neoplastic cells exhibited an extensive expression of tissue factors with a mucin-producing adenocarcinoma component. Three months postoperatively, diffuse infiltration rapidly appeared in the left lung, which was identified as lymphangitic carcinomatosis via bronchoscopy. Prior to treatment for cancer recurrence, the patient presented with a left hemiplegia due to a cerebral infarction via multiple thromboses, with no evidence of atherosclerotic or cardiogenic thrombi. Elevated D-dimer and carbohydrate antigen 125 levels and the presence of a fibrin thrombus retrieved from the occluded vessel suggested Trousseau's syndrome as the etiology of the brain infarction. A hypercoagulable state associated with the aggressive recurrence of pulmonary pleomorphic carcinoma, accompanied by cancer cell production of mucin and tissue factors may be a potential mechanism for cancer-related thrombosis.
