Approach to Different Types of Inferior Vena Cava Leiomyosarcomas: A Vascular Surgeon's Perspective.
Article in Cureus, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 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
Leiomyosarcoma (LMS) is a rare smooth muscle tumor, and only a few cases have been reported with involvement of the inferior vena cava (IVC). Inferior vena cava LMS is more often silent and usually has a poor prognosis as the patients present late. We present this case series to showcase the different approaches to surgical resection, as each tumor had a different location in the IVC. We emphasize preoperative surgical planning to achieve a tumor-free margin and maintain hemodynamics at the same time.
