Insights into clinical diagnosis and treatment of malignant hepatic perivascular epithelioid cell tumor.
Article in Intractable & rare diseases research, 2022. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 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
Perivascular epithelioid cell tumors (PEComas) are infrequent mesenchymal tumors. They are usually benign, and only a few are malignant. These tumors are more commonly found in middle-aged women. PEComas are mainly composed of differentiated perivascular epithelioid cells arranged radially around the vascular cavity, and they are usually positive for melanocyte markers and smooth muscle cell differentiation markers. Among the PEComas, hepatic PEComas generally have no obvious symptoms and no typical imaging manifestations. Malignant hepatic PEComas are even rarer. So, we explained our insights into clinical diagnosis and treatment of malignant hepatic PEComas, in order to help clinicians and pathologists to further understand PEComas.
