Pulmonary Glomus Tumor.
Article in Cureus, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 5 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
Glomus tumors, which account for less than 2% of soft tissue tumors, are a rare benign soft tissue neoplasm. They originated from neuro-myo-arterial glomus tissue whose primary function is regulation of the body temperature. This tissue is commonly located in the dermis or subcutis in the subungual region; however, it can be extracutaneous such as in bones, the genitourinary tract, the gastrointestinal tract, and the respiratory tract. Histologically, a glomus tumor is made of proliferating rounded or cuboidal epithelioid cells in a meshwork of blood vessels. Although a benign growth, they can rarely show malignant features with infiltration of surrounding tissue with the rapid multiplication of cells in which case it is labeled as a malignant glomus tumor. Pulmonary glomus tumors are extremely rare and most commonly occur in middle-aged men. They are mostly asymptomatic, but a small percentage of patients may present with hemoptysis and cough if there is large airway involvement. We present an interesting case of a middle-aged man presenting with cough and occasional hemoptysis, found to have an endobronchial nodular lesion, and subsequently diagnosed with a pulmonary glomus tumor.
