Giant teratoma of the pancreas expanding to the mediastinum: Rare tumor and literature review.
Article in Rare tumors, 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
Pancreatic mature cystic teratomas are very rare with limited cases found in the literature. These lesions raise a diagnostic challenge and complicate the surgical approach not only because of their anatomic position but also because of their ever-growing size. An elusive diagnosis, usually leads to the operative theatre where surgical resection takes place. We present a rare case of a large pancreatic cystic teratoma extending into the mediastinum in a 29-year-old woman which was succesfully managed with en-bloc distal pancreatectomy and spleenectomy.
