Primary colonic squamous cell carcinoma: a case report and review of the literature.
Review in Annals of the Royal College of Surgeons of England, 2020. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 13 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
Colonic squamous cell carcinoma is extremely rare, with no clear pathogenesis. It usually presents as an emergency. We present the surgical management of a descending colon squamous cell carcinoma, together with a review of the available cases of colonic squamous cell carcinoma in the literature. A 69-year-old woman presented with a palpable mass and abdominal pain. She underwent ultrasound and colonoscopy, which revealed a large obstructing mass at the descending colon, the biopsies of which were not diagnostic. Unfortunately, she was readmitted with bowel obstruction and underwent extended right hemicolectomy with en-bloc excision of attached small bowel and omentum because of local mass expansion. Histopathological analysis demonstrated squamous cell carcinoma with lymph node metastases. Palliative chemotherapy followed, owing to liver and peritoneal deposits. Sixty-six cases of colonic squamous cell carcinoma have been reported in the literature. The most common location is the right colon. Most cases present at a late stage. Several theories for the pathogenesis of colonic squamous cell carcinoma have been reported; the most popular is the squamous transformation of a pluripotent stem cell.
