Toddler with giant omental cyst, profound anemia, and shock: case report and review of the literature.
Article in Frontiers in medicine, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 4 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
Giant greater omental cysts with associated massive hemorrhage are rare. We encountered a 16-month-old boy with a four-day history of acute abdominal pain, distension, and paleness. Physical examination revealed a blood pressure of 74/27 mmHg. No well-defined masses were observed on abdominal palpation. The hemoglobin level on admission was 24 g/L. After initial resuscitation and blood transfusion, a computed tomography (CT) scan was performed, revealing a giant cystic mass with an intracystic hemorrhage. The diagnosis was confirmed via exploratory laparotomy, and the cyst, with the attached partial omentum was removed. Pathological findings revealed a simple cyst originating from the greater omentum. The patient recovered uneventfully and remained well during the two-year follow-up period. We reviewed the literature published over the last 27 years on cases of omental cysts to evaluate demographic characteristics, clinical presentations, complications, diagnostic tool options, and surgical approaches.
