Endoscopic Treatment of Sinonasal Leiomyosarcoma: A Case Report in Light of the Literature.
Article in Yonago acta medica, 2021. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper.
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
A 49-year-old Japanese man presented with a rare case of sinonasal leiomyosarcoma with left nasal bleeding for 12 months. He had no history of irradiation or malignancies, including retinoblastoma. Preoperative histological examination suggested vascular leiomyoma. Complete resection with endoscopic surgery was performed. Histological examination during the operation suggested that the tumor was a leiomyoma. However, immunohistochemical staining for α smooth muscle actin and desmin were helpful in establishing a definitive diagnosis of sinonasal leiomyosarcoma. The resection margins were positive for tumor cells. Staging with CT of the neck and thorax, ultrasound of the abdomen, and MRI of the head ruled out metastases. Second endoscopic tumor resection surgery was performed for positive resection margins. The patient's condition was successfully managed with additional excision, and he remains well with no evidence of recurrence and metastasis 36 months after treatment. Endoscopic management should be considered in suitable cases.
