Fallopian tube tumour presenting as supraclavicular lymph node metastasis.
Article in BMJ case reports, 2022. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper.
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
A 72-year-old woman noted a lump in her left supraclavicular fossa with no other symptoms or other signs on physical exam. A cervical biopsy indicated metastatic carcinoma. On the diagnostic workup: thoracic-abdominal-pelvic CT revealed augmented lymph nodes (LNs) in the retroperitoneum; Positron Emission Tomography-CT showed uptake in the LNs described and in two small areas in the pelvis; blood tests showed elevated CA125 and CA72.4. Another biopsy, considering a para-aortic LN, proved to be metastasis of a high-grade serous carcinoma (HGSC). Gynaecological exam and pelvic imaging were innocent. Diagnostic laparoscopy, including hysterectomy and bilateral adnexectomy, was performed and anatomopathological examination confirmed a HGSC in the fallopian tube (FT), in a tiny focus of 1.5 mm. The patient continued treatment with adjuvant chemotherapy. Literature review indicates that supraclavicular LN as first manifestation of FT carcinoma is not usual, and widespread lymphadenopathies with no macroscopic pelvic disease at diagnosis are even rarer.
