Primary Prostatic Extra-Gastrointestinal Stromal Tumor Treated with Imatinib Mesylate as Neoadjuvant and Adjuvant Therapy: A Case Report and Literature Review.
Article in OncoTargets and therapy, 2019. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 6 papers, 1 of them a synthesis that pooled it.
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
The current study presents a case of primary prostatic extra-gastrointestinal stromal tumor (EGIST) in a 43-year-old man who suffered acute urinary retention. The serum level of prostate-specific antigen was normal. Imaging examinations demonstrated a diffusely enlarged prostate compressing the rectum without evidence of metastasis. After excluding the possibility of secondary involvement by a rectal GIST, the pathologic diagnosis of primary prostatic EGIST was established based on microscopic study, immunohistochemistry, and molecular analysis. This patient is the first case with primary EGISTs of prostate received imatinib mesylate as neoadjuvant and adjuvant therapy reported in the literature to date. We hope this case could provide the experience of diagnosis and treatment of primary prostatic EGISTs.
