Overreliance on Radiological Findings Leading to Misdiagnosed Giant Retroperitoneal Ganglioneuroma: A Case Report and Literature Review.
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
Ganglioneuroma is a rare, benign, well-differentiated neurogenic tumor most commonly located in the posterior mediastinum or retroperitoneum. Giant ganglioneuromas are even less common; this is only the 19th reported case in literature to date. We present a case of a giant retroperitoneal ganglioneuroma in a five-year-old child, which on imaging mimicked a mesenteric cyst and posed various challenges in its management. Histopathology later confirmed our misdiagnosis and revealed the tumor to be a ganglioneuroma. This unique case serves as a lesson for clinicians to not operate before receiving histopathological confirmation of their diagnosis.
