An Asymptomatic Patient with Colonic Leiomyoma.
Article in Case reports in gastroenterology. 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
Subepithelial lesions (SELs) originating from muscularis mucosae of the colon are very rare findings on endoscopy. Appropriate management of SELs involves making a correct diagnosis and estimating their malignant potential. In this case study, a 58-year-old Saudi man presented with a small, 8-mm sigmoid polyp during screening colonoscopy. The polyp was removed by hot snare polypectomy and sent to pathology laboratory. Report showed an unremarkable colonic mucosa and underlying well-circumscribed submucosal lesion composed of monotonous spindle cells. Immunohistochemical (IHC) analysis ruled out CD117-/DOG1-positive GIST and confirmed the lesion as leiomyomatous polyp. Colonic leiomyomas are usually benign and often asymptomatic and discovered during CRC screening procedures. Diagnosis is made on histology/IHC analysis since endoscopically they might be indistinguishable from other SELs. Conventional polypectomy is an appropriate treatment for small colonic leiomyoma and these benign lesions typically do not recur.
