Angiomatoid Fibrous Histiocytoma: A Series of Three Cases.
Article in Cureus, 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
Angiomatoid fibrous histiocytoma (AFH) is a rare, slow-growing soft tissue tumor with an intermediate biologic potential and uncertain line of differentiation, and minimal metastatic potential. AFH may mimic both the clinical, histological, and radiological findings of several tumors; therefore, it is frequently misdiagnosed. Three cases of AFH were included in this study. A six-year-old male and two females with an age of 12 and 17 years are presented. The primary locations were in the right shoulder (case 1), left medial proximal thigh (case 2), and left lateral knee (case 3). Two cases (cases 2&3) were presented with a painful mass. In the three patients, the masses were firm, mobile, and not attached to the skin. Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) was done, illustrating unspecific findings to reach a diagnosis. Needle biopsies were performed in all patient, and the diagnosis of AFH was reached. All three patients underwent wide surgical excision of the tumor. Patients were followed up routinely every three to four months with imaging studies to rule out recurrence and metastasis, for a period of 15 months (case 1), 26 months (case 2), and 19 months (case 3), which all resulted negatively.
