Primary leiomyosarcoma of the sigmoid colon: Case report and review of literature.
Article in Radiology case reports, 2022. 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
Leiomyosarcomas of the sigmoid colon are aggressive and extremely rare tumors representing less than 0.1% of all colorectal malignancies. Few cases have been reported in the literature and their imaging features need to be more detailed. We report the case of a 70 year old male patient, smoker, with a history of arterial hypertension, admitted for abdominal pain and hypogastric mass. Computed tomography has shown a voluminous heterogeneously enhancing tumor process with a necrotic center, attached to the sigmoid wall, with multiple secondary peritoneal and hepatic masses. The anatomopathological examination of the biopsy sample with immunohistochemistry allowed the diagnosis of leiomyosarcoma of the sigmoid colon. Clinical presentation and radiological features of leiomyosarcomas are non-specific, and the definitive diagnosis is only established after an anatomopathological examination.
