An extremely rare case of Rosai-Dorfman disease in the spleen.
Article in BMC surgery, 2021. 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
backgroundRosai-Dorfman disease (RDD) is a rare, multisystemic histiocytic disorder, and commonly manifesting as lymphadenopathy in the young male. Abdominal manifestations of RDD are extremely rare. CASE PRESENTATION: In August 2018, a 42-year-old man underwent an abdominal ultrasonography examination due to his weight loss of 10 kg in only three months and found a giant solid tumor was found in his spleen. Then, he was admitted to our hospital and diagnosed as a splenic mass via abdominal enhanced CT and MRI. Laparoscopic splenectomy was administrated within six days of admission due to the clear surgical indications. The pathogenesis of RDD remained poorly understood and the disease should be diagnosed based on histopathology and immunohistochemistry (IHC). The mutations in ATM and NFKBIA were observed using next generation sequencing (NGS).
conclusionWe reported a case of splenic involvement of RDD with NGS genetic testing, indicating the difficulty of making a diagnosis before surgery. This extremely rare case offers new references for the understanding of abdominal viscera RDD.
