Branchial cleft cyst arising in posterior mediastinum: A case report.
Article in Frontiers in surgery, 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
Branchial cleft cysts are congenital diseases of the neck caused by abnormal embryonic development of the first to fourth branchial clefts. Most branchial cleft cysts are found in the head and neck, but branchial cleft cysts arising in posterior mediastinum are rarely reported. We report a 44-year-old Chinese man who was found to have a right-posterior mediastinal mass on chest computed tomography (CT) during a physical examination. The size of the mass was about 30.6 mm * 25.1 mm and enhanced CT of the chest showed an occupying lesion in the right parietal esophagus of the upper-posterior mediastinum with no significant enhancement. The patient was considered to have a neurogenic tumor with cystic change and underwent posterior mediastinal tumor resection. Postoperatively, pathological examination confirmed the final diagnosis of bronchial cleft cyst. The patient was discharged on the 7th day after surgery. One year postsurgery, no obvious recurrence was found in reexamination.
