Malignant histiocytosis associated with mediastinal germ cell tumor: A case report.
Article in World journal of clinical cases, 2022. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
backgroundGerm cell tumors (GCTs) account for 2% of human malignancies but are the most common malignant tumors among males aged 15-35. Since 1983, an association between mediastinal GCT (MGCT) and hematologic malignancies has been recognized. CASE SUMMARY: We report a case in which malignant histiocytosis was associated with mediastinal GCTs. The clinical data of a male patient with MGCT admitted to Beijing Children's Hospital were collected retrospectively. The patient was first diagnosed according to imaging and pathological features as having MGCT, and was treated with surgery and chemotherapy. One year after stopping chemotherapy, imaging showed metastases in the right supraclavicular, mediastinum, hilar region and retroperitoneal lymph node, right pleura, right lung, and right para-cardiac margin. Pathological diagnosis of the liver nodular and hilar lymph nodes included systemic juvenile xanthogranuloma and Rosai-Dorfman lesions with malignant transformation (
conclusionPhysicians should recognize the possibility of hematologic malignancies being associated with MGCT. Suitable sites should be selected for pathological examination.
