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
backgroundMesenteric fibromatosis, is a rare neoplasm arising usually from the bowel mesentery, with intermediate behavior and local invasion potential. They can be sporadic or related to multiple factors contributions. They usually presents as an asymptomatic growth of intraabdominal mass, and can reach a large diameter before symptoms appearance. Surgical excision is the definitive treatment when achievable. CASE PRESENTATION: In this case we present a case of 34 years old gentleman, presenting for painless abdominal distension, and found to have a giant mesenteric fibromatosis of 23 cm diameter and 4.5 kg arising from the appendix and colonic mesentery. Treated surgically, and was free of recurrence after 1 year follow up.
conclusionWe report this rare case to encourage physicians to keep this etiology in mind as part of the differential diagnosis of unspecific abdominal mass.
