Metastatic rectal gastrointestinal stromal tumor with intestinal obstruction: A rare case report.

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
Gastrointestinal stromal tumors (GISTs) arising from the rectum are rare. We report the case of an aggressive rectal gastrointestinal stromal tumor (GIST) in a 60-year-old female that presented for symptoms of constipation and lower gastrointestinal bleeding. Upon rectal examination, a hard mass was found at 6cm from the anal marge. An MRI was indicated that shows a well-demarcated lesion originates from the distal rectum with exophytic growth and central necrosis. The diagnosis of rectal gist was confirmed by colonoscopy with biopsy and immunohistochemical analyses of bioptic material. Liver metastases were seen on computerized tomography (CT). She was referred for palliative chemotherapy. The patient had suffered from intestinal obstruction three weeks after his initial presentation and passed away shortly thereafter. We aimed to report this case as an aggressive and rare GIST localization.
