Incidental Gastric Langerhans Cell Histiocytosis and Synchronous Adenocarcinoma of the Colon: An Interesting Case Report and Literature Review.
Article in Cancer diagnosis & prognosis. 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
BACKGROUND/
aimLangerhans cell histiocytosis (LCH) is an uncommon disorder characterized by an abnormal monoclonal proliferation of pathologic Langerhans cells. The clinical presentation of LCH is very unpredictable, ranging from single-system limited disease to severe multi-organ disease with a high mortality rate. LCH usually affects children and very rarely adults. The most common body parts affected by LCH are the bones, skin, lungs, pituitary glands, and lymph nodes. Gastrointestinal tract involvement by LCH is exceptionally rare, and only a few cases have been reported. CASE REPORT: We present the case of a 50-year-old woman who was referred to our clinic by her primary care physician for an upper endoscopy and colonoscopy and was diagnosed with H. pylori-related gastritis and a synchronous gastric LCH and primary colonic adenocarcinoma. We describe the histologic characteristics and clinical implications of the LCH diagnosis. A review of the published literature revealed that LCH presenting as a gastric solitary lesion is rare.
conclusionThis case highlights the importance of recognizing this rare condition to ensure proper patient follow-up.
