Leiomyosarcoma of the inferior vena cava as etiology of chronic abdominal pains - a case report.
Article in Jornal vascular brasileiro, 2022. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 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
Inferior vena cava leiomyosarcomas are rare tumors that account for less than 0.7% of all retroperitoneal leiomyosarcomas. They are more common in women and cause nonspecific chronic abdominal pain. In this report, we present the case of a 53-year-old female patient complaining of chronic nonspecific periumbilical abdominal pain with initial onset 8 months previously who was diagnosed with inferior vena cava leiomyosarcoma by computed tomography angiography. The patient was treated with complete resection of the tumor and reconstruction of the inferior vena cava with interposition of a Dacron prosthetic graft. The treatment considered the gold standard consists of complete surgical excision, because these tumors are resistant to chemotherapy and radiotherapy. The prognosis of these patients is closely related to early diagnosis. Therefore, it is very important that vascular and general surgeons know that this disease is a possible differential diagnosis of chronic abdominal pains.
