Kaposi Sarcoma of the Gastrointestinal Tract in an Adolescent With AIDS.
Article in JPGN reports, 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
Kaposi sarcoma (KS) of the gastrointestinal (GI) tract in a patient with acquired immunodeficiency syndrome (AIDS) has not been reported in an adolescent outside of Africa. We present a 16-year homosexual old male with AIDS, cutaneous KS, pulmonary KS, and gastrointestinal KS (GI-KS) lesions. Eighty percent of patients with GI-KS are asymptomatic, but our patient presented with a month-long history of dysphagia, abdominal pain, and hematochezia. Endoscopy with biopsies revealed multiple KS lesions within the stomach and lower GI tract. This novel case demonstrates the importance of considering early endoscopic screening in immunocompromised adolescents with cutaneous KS to improve morbidity and mortality.
