Rhabdomyosarcoma in Adults: Case Series and Literature Review.
Article in International journal of women's health, 2022. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 12 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
Rhabdomyosarcoma, a common soft tissue malignant tumor in children and adolescents, is exceedingly rare in adults. Nevertheless, The outcome in adults is very poor, especially when compared to outcomes in children in whom significant improvements in treatment has been achieved. The first case was of a 24-year-old pregnant Chinese woman with a rare primary site of rhabdomyosarcoma in the perineal body. She presented with a perineal mass and was diagnosed during the second trimester of pregnancy, which is a very rare occurrence. The second case was a 70-year-old Chinese woman who suffered from right lower abdominal pain for 1 month and was misdiagnosed with an epithelial ovarian carcinoma. Mesenteric pleomorphic rhabdomyosarcoma was later confirmed by postoperative pathology. Both cases had undergone preoperative examination with chest and abdominal computed tomography (CT) and pelvic magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) examinations, as well as examination of complete blood count, liver panel, renal panel, and serum tumor markers. Diagnosis was based on histopathology and immunohistochemistry. The patient in the first case received chemotherapy after which the mass decreased in size; however, the patient was lost to follow-up. The second case underwent tumor resection and received chemotherapy and radiotherapy.
