Kaposiform hemangioendothelioma of the thigh: A case report.
Article in Radiology case reports, 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
Kaposiform hemangioendothelioma is a rare, locally aggressive or borderline vascular tumor that typically affects infants. It presents as a purpuric cutaneous lesion and may be associated with life-threatening coagulation disorders, such as the Kasabach-Merritt phenomenon. The differential diagnosis can be challenging based on clinical presentation alone. Imaging plays a crucial role in the diagnostic workup, particularly magnetic resonance imaging. We present a case report of a 4-month-old patient with an enlarging vinous cutaneous mass on the thigh and coagulation abnormalities. Magnetic resonance imaging revealed a large, infiltrative, soft-tissue lesion with poorly defined margins and heterogeneous enhancement, that involved all muscle compartments of the thigh and was associated with lymphedema, stranding of the subcutaneous fat and cutaneous thickening. These findings were consistent with kaposiform hemangioendothelioma of the thigh and the diagnosis was confirmed by histopathological characterization.
