Unusual Vulvar, Perineal, and Uterine Leiomyomas: A Case Report.
Article in Cureus, 2023. 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
Vulvar leiomyomas are extremely rare smooth muscle tumors that are easily mistaken for other lesions, as the differential diagnosis must consider a wide spectrum of benign and malignant lesions. We present the case of a 52-year-old woman with a three-year history of progressive abdominal distension and pain and an enlarging vulvar mass distorting the labia majora and causing gait disturbance. Imaging confirmed an enormous pelvic mass originating in the uterus, compatible with a leiomyoma/sarcoma, and large perineal and vulvar masses with similar characteristics. Histopathology after surgical removal revealed benign abdominal, vulvar, and perineal leiomyomas. This case highlights the rarity and diagnostic challenges of extra-uterine leiomyomas, particularly those in the vulvar region.
