Perivascular epithelioid cell tumor of the lung: A case report and literature review.
Review in Thoracic cancer, 2022. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 7 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
The perivascular epithelioid cell tumor (PEComa) is a rare tumor of interstitial origin characterized by several immunological and muscle cell markers. The clear cell sugar tumor (CCST) of the lung is a type of PEComa defined by thin cell walls and high levels of glycogen in the cytoplasm. We herein reported the case of a 48-year-old male with a recurrence of lung CCST. The preoperative diagnosis of the lung mass was performed by percutaneous needle biopsy. During the thoracoscopic resection, multiple adhesions in the thoracic cavity were described. The tumor invaded the chest wall, and the boundaries between the tumor and surrounding normal tissues were unclear. The mediastinal lymph nodes were significantly enlarged. No relevant gene mutations were detected. After concomitant chemoradiotherapy, the patient's condition was stable. We also conducted a literature review and discussed the overall findings.
