Yolk Sac Tumor of the Omentum: A Case Report and Literature Review.
Article in Diagnostics (Basel, Switzerland), 2022. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 6 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
This is a case report of a rare finding of an extragonadal yolk sac tumor in a 37-year-old patient who presented with shortness of breath and abdominal bloating. During imaging and staging surgery, the findings were strongly suggestive of an extragonadal advanced tumor presenting with peritoneal dissemination, predominantly affecting omentum, with no clear primary origin. Histology revealed an extragonadal yolk sac tumor in a pure form outside the ovaries. Lacking an obvious origin elsewhere, the tumor was highly suspected to have truly originated from the omentum. The patient underwent surgery and four cycles of chemotherapy consisting of cisplatin, etoposide, and bleomycin. One-year outpatient follow-up thereafter showed no relapse. We herein discuss a possible site of the tumor origin and its development, as well as diagnostic challenges and disease prognosis.
