Non-Islet Cell Tumor Hypoglycemia Caused by Recurrent Pelvic Solitary Fibrous Tumor.
Article in Cureus, 2021. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 7 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
Non-islet cell tumor hypoglycemia is a rare paraneoplastic condition caused by an extra-pancreatic tumor. We report a rare case of hypoglycemia caused by a relapsing pelvic solitary fibrous tumor associated with Big-IGF-2 production. A 72-year-old woman was admitted to our hospital because of loss of consciousness and hypoglycemia. She had a history of ovarian solitary fibrous tumor, which has relapsed. From investigation, serum levels of insulin and C-peptide were suppressed; IGF-1 was slightly reduced and IGF-2 was within the normal range, but the IGF-2: IGF-1 ratio was elevated, indicating the presence of Big-IGF-2 secreting non-islet cell tumor. Contrast-enhanced computed tomography (CT) showed a large pelvic mass. She was then submitted to surgical resection of the mass, which histologically proved to be a solitary fibrous tumor. Three months later, she remains asymptomatic. Non-islet cell tumor hypoglycemia should be considered in the differential diagnosis of patients presenting with tumors and recurrent hypoglycemia.
