Myxolipoma of hand in a child: case report of a rare tumor.
Article in Journal of ultrasound, 2023. 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
Lipomatous tumors account for less than 10% of tumors in the pediatric population. Myxolipomas (a subset of lipoma characterised by mature adipose tissue and abundant mucoid substance) are found to be even rarer. There are a few case reports in different body parts like heart, kidney, oral cavity, epiglottis, cervical and mediastinal regions. However, there are no case reports on the involvement of the hands in any age group. High resolution ultrasound is the imaging modality of choice for the initial evaluation of superficial soft tissue tumors, their site, nature and extent. In conjunction with clinical findings and age of presentation, it helps in narrowing down the differential diagnosis and planning the management. Hyperechoic fatty tumors in the pediatric hand are mostly benign and includes lipomas, lipoblastomas and fibrous hamartomas of infancy as the main differentials. A definitive diagnosis is based on a histo-pathological and molecular cytogenetic examination. This article presents a never before reported case of a rare, large, myxolipoma of the hand in a 22-month-old boy.
