Neurofibromatosis type 1 with multiple gastrointestinal stromal tumors: A case report.
Article in World journal of clinical cases, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 7 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
backgroundNeurofibromatosis type 1 (NF1) is characterized by café-au-lait patches on the skin and the presence of neurofibromas. Gastrointestinal stromal tumor (GIST) is the most common non-neurological tumor in NF1 patients. In NF1-associated GIST, CASE SUMMARY: A 56-year-old woman with NF1 was hospitalized because of an incidental pelvic mass. Physical examination was notable for multiple café-au-lait patches and numerous subcutaneous soft nodular masses of the skin of the head, face, trunk, and limbs. Her abdomen was soft and nontender. No masses were palpated. Digital rectal examination was unremarkable. Abdominal computed tomography was suspicious for GIST or solitary fibrous tumor. Laparoscopy was performed, which identified eight well-demarcated masses in the jejunum. All were resected and pathologically diagnosed as GISTs. The patient was discharged on day 7 after surgery without complications. No tumor recurrence was evident at the 6-mo follow-up.
conclusionLaparoscopy is effective for both diagnosis and treatment of NF1-associated GIST.
