Gastric Plexiform Fibromyxoma Arising in the Cardia in an Adolescent Male: A Rare Tumor with an Unusual Location.

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
Plexiform fibromyxoma of the stomach, also known as plexiform angiomyxoid myofibroblastic tumor, is a rare benign gastric mesenchymal tumor, first described in 2007, which usually arises in the gastric antrum and affects adults. Few cases have been reported in children and adolescents. It can present with different clinical manifestations including abdominal pain, dyspepsia, hematemesis, and vomiting. Preoperatively, this tumor is usually diagnosed as gastrointestinal stromal tumor (GIST), and the correct diagnosis is made only after histopathological examination following surgical resection. Most cases were reported from East Asia (China, Japan, and Korea), North America, and Europe. We report herein a unique case of plexiform fibromyxoma, the first to be reported from the Middle East, arising in the cardia of the stomach in a 16-year-old adolescent male, with a brief review of the literature.
