Metastatic Leiomyoma Following Menopause: A Case Report and Review of Literature.
Article in Cureus, 2022. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper.
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
Uterine leiomyomas commonly reduce naturally after menopause. We report a rare case of metastasizing leiomyoma that grew after surgical menopause. A 68-year-old woman suffered from pelvic and lung masses without clinical symptoms. Nineteen years ago, she underwent a total hysterectomy and bilateral adnexectomy for multiple uterine myomas and bilateral endometriotic cysts. She has since been regularly prescribed conjugated estrogens. Surgery was scheduled in order to rule out malignancy; abdominal masses resection and thoracoscopic left partial pulmonary resection (S3, S4, S10) were performed. The histological diagnosis was leiomyoma in both abdominal and lung masses, and there was no evidence of gene mutations, which suggested that leiomyosarcoma was indicated. This case may indicate that hormone replacement was augmented via derived nutrient vessels after a surgical ovarian absence.
