Spontaneous Tumor Lysis Syndrome Due to Endometrial Carcinoma.
Article in Cureus, 2020. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 5 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
Spontaneous tumor lysis syndrome (TLS) is a rare condition in solid tumors, particularly in endometrial carcinoma. Spontaneous TLS occurs without the use of cytotoxic therapy but is observed particularly in hematologic malignancies. Given the high morbidity and mortality associated with spontaneous TLS, it is crucial to identify and treat it promptly. There have been only four cases of spontaneous TLS reported to date in the literature from a uterine source. We present a 59-year-old female with a recently diagnosed endometrial carcinoma with neuroendocrine features by dilation and curettage who presented to the hospital with somnolence, decreased oral intake, and lower abdominal pain of three days duration. She was found to have sepsis secondary to endometritis and spontaneous tumor lysis syndrome by clinical and laboratory definitions (hyperkalemia, hyperphosphatemia, hyperuricemia, and hypocalcemia). Signs of disease progression were found such as worsening retroperitoneal lymphadenopathy that corresponded with the suspected increased tumoral activity. We report the case of a solid tumor (endometrial) presenting with spontaneous TLS, which highlights the importance of the early identification and initiation of treatment.
