Cellular angiofibroma in the hypopharynx: A case report.
Article in Medicine, 2019. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper.
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
rationaleCellular angiofibroma is a rare benign mesenchymal tumor which mostly occurs in the superficial soft tissues of the genital region. Occurrence in the head and neck region is extremely rare. To our knowledge, this is the first case of cellular angiofibroma arising in the hypopharynx. PATIENT'S CONCERNS: A 54-year-old male complained of a mass moving through his throat for 1 month. A tumor was found in the right lateral wall of the pharyngeal at the level of the epiglottis by laryngoscope. Magnetic resonance imaging confirmed the presence of a mass in the right lateral pharyngeal area. A benign tumor was suspected based on the clinical symptoms and imaging findings. DIAGNOSIS: A supporting laryngoscope was performed under general anesthesia and the lesion was resected. Immunohistochemical analysis revealed cellular angiofibroma.
interventionsThe patient underwent surgical excision of the lesion. OUTCOMES: Thus far, no recurrence has been observed 6 months after excision. LESSONS: Cellular angiofibroma located in the lateral pharyngeal is rare; however, immunohistochemical staining is helpful for its diagnosis. Treatment is relatively simple and requires local excision and follow-up.
