Inflammatory myofibroblastic tumor of the spleen: a case report.
Article in Radiology case reports, 2021. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 4 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
Inflammatory myofibroblastic tumors (IMTs), otherwise known as the inflammatory pseudotumor, is a rare solid mesenchymal tumor, simulating malignant neoplasms, histologically characterized by the proliferation of spindle cells in a fibrous myxoid stroma containing inflammatory cells. CT and MR imaging are the most used tools in their assessment. Clinical features are nonspecific and depend on the localization of the tumor, radiologic findings are polymorphic and no-conclusive and present a diagnostic challenge to the radiologist. Although histology remains obligatory for the final diagnosis. Heren, we report a case of splenic IMT with histological correlation.
