Intra-abdominal small intestinal desmoid tumour mimicking GIST.
Article in BMJ case reports, 2021. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 5 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
Desmoid tumours, also known as aggressive fibromatosis, are fibromuscular neoplasms that arise from mesenchymal cell lines. Desmoid tumours are usually benign and are locally aggressive tumours. We report a case of a 31-year-old man presenting with abdominal mass associated with dyspepsia and early satiety. CT scan demonstrated a large heterogeneous mass adherent to or arising from the jejunum. The patient underwent a successful elective exploratory laparotomy with resection of the tumour arising from the wall of the ileum with a 10 cm margin. The patient had an uneventful recovery and no recurrence at 6-month follow-up. Pathology report and immunohistochemistry analysis revealed the mass to be a primary desmoid tumour of the small bowel, as the tumour was negative for c-kit and Discovered on GIST 1 (DOG-1) and positive for beta-catenin and smooth muscle actin.
