Postoperative recurrence of mixed extragonadal germ cell tumor in the right shoulder: a case report.
Article in Diagnostic pathology, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
backgroundExtragonadal germ cell tumours (EGGCTs) originated in Shoulder are extremely rare, with 1 case described in the literature. We report a case of a patient with a primary Right Shoulder mixed EGGCT. CASE PRESENTATION: A 36-year-old male patient was hospitalized for 6 months due to progressive right shoulder swelling accompanied by pain. Subsequently, the right shoulder tumor was removed entirely. Gross pathological examination showed that the size of the tumor mass was about 14 × 10 × 6 cm.Mutations were observed in ENPEP (4q25), ZCCHC11, RREB1 (6p24.3), CKAP4 (12q23.3), and other genes were detected by whole exome sequencing. Histology revealed a mixed EGGCT of the Right Shoulder with immature teratoma and yolk sac tumour. The patient went through 6 cycles of chemotherapy. After 7 months of follow-up, the patient is recurrence.
conclusionThe primary MEGCT of the shoulder is an extremely rare condition. However, the recurrence and metastasis rates are high. Therefore, further research is necessary to determine this rare disease's genetic and clinical characteristics to develop an effective treatment plan.
