Extragastrointestinal stromal tumor in the rectovaginal septum associated with acute arterial occlusion.
Article in Gynecologic oncology reports, 2020. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 4 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
Extragastrointestinal stromal tumors (EGISTs) arise from atypical sites, such as the omentum, mesentery, retroperitoneal space, urinary bladder, or rectovaginal septum, and account for fewer than 10% of gastrointestinal stromal tumors (GISTs). Most EGISTs are asymptomatic at the time of diagnosis, due to the fact that they rarely cause symptoms until they grow to greater than 10 cm in diameter. Common presenting symptoms are a feeling of vaginal fullness and increased urinary frequency. Cases described in previous reports have been treated with surgery with or without targeted therapy. Here we report an unusual case of an EGIST at the rectovaginal septum presenting with excessive vaginal bleeding and acute arterial occlusion. This rectovaginal mass was successfully removed using the abdominoperineal approach and did not require targeted therapy.
