Uterine Primitive Neuroectodermal 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 2 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
Uterine primitive neuroectodermal tumors (PNETs) are rare entities, with only around 70 cases published in the literature. Most of them are diagnosed in advanced stages with rapid progression and poor prognosis. Herein, we present a case of a 71-year-old patient with postmenopausal metrorrhagia and an ultrasound finding of endometrial thickening. The pathological diagnosis after an endometrial biopsy showed PNET. In the study of extension, possible distant dissemination with infiltration of the sigmoid and liver was observed. Chemotherapy treatment was proposed, but not begun due to the rapid progression of the disease. Four months after the initial diagnosis, the patient died of multiple organ failure. While there is no optimal chemotherapy treatment regimen for PNET, some studies have reported encouraging results. It is necessary to publish more studies emphasizing the follow-up and survival of the disease to establish which may be the best treatment option and thus improve the current poor prognosis.
