Rapidly growing giant solitary fibrous tumor of the pleura: a case report and review of the literature.
Article in International journal of clinical and experimental pathology, 2020. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 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
Solitary fibrous tumors of the pleura (SFTPs) are rare slowly-growing tumors that originate from mesenchymal cells of the submesothelial tissue of the pleura. A 57-year-old female presented to our institute, and complained of mild chest discomfort for one year. The computed tomography (CT) showed a thoracic mass measuring 3.4×1.5 cm. She refused surgical removal, and turned to the medical treatment with oral herbs with unknown specific ingredients; however, she had persistence of her symptoms and gradually developed general fatigue and severe dyspnea six months before presentation. The CT scan revealed a giant mass measuring 33×20×15 cm in the right hemithorax, leading to total atelectasis of the lung. After preoperative embolization of the tumor-supplying arteries, the tumor was completely removed. The diagnosis of SFTP was confirmed by subsequent histopathologic and immunohistochemical examinations. The postoperative course was uneventful with a 15-day length of stay, and the patient was in good health at the 15-month follow-up.
