Angioleiomyoma of the hand with nerve compression.
Article in The Journal of international medical research, 2020. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 8 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
objectiveThis study was performed to analyze the clinical, radiographic, and pathological features of hand angioleiomyoma causing nerve compression and assess the outcomes of surgical excision.
methodsThis case series included three men and one woman (mean age, 53.3 years; range, 49-56 years). The patients' chief complaint was numbness of the fingers. The patients' medical histories were reviewed, and the diagnosis of angioleiomyoma with nerve compression was confirmed by means of imaging examination and pathological analysis.
resultsThree tumors occurred in the palm and one in the finger, and the average maximum tumor diameter was 1.8 cm (range, 0.8-2.6 cm). Preoperative magnetic resonance imaging demonstrated well-defined masses with isointense signals on T1 sequences, hyperintense signals on T2 sequences, and strong heterogeneous enhancement after injection of contrast material. All tumors were located near nerves, leading to nerve compression. The diagnosis of angioleiomyoma was confirmed by postoperative pathology. Finger sensation recovered and no recurrence was found during an average follow-up of 37 months (range, 25-59 months).
conclusionsAngioleiomyoma should be considered among the differential diagnoses of hand tumors and timely resection should be performed, particularly if the mass is causing numbness and/or pain with positive Tinel's sign and/or tenderness.
