Nasal hemophilic pseudotumor in a 2-year-old with recurrent epistaxis: a case report and review of the literature.
Article in Journal of surgical case reports, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
Hemophilic pseudotumor is a rare, yet dangerous complication of hemophilia. It has been reported previously at sites prone to recurrent trauma like long bones and pelvis. However, in the field of otorhinolaryngology, few cases are reported and therefore there is no established protocol for management. We hereby report a case of a 2-year-old boy, a known case of hemophilia A (factor VIII deficiency), who presented with recurrent epistaxis not responding to medical management. Imaging was done and revealed a heterogenous nasal mass compressing the left orbital wall, extending to the sphenoid sinus, and causing skull base erosion. The patient was successfully managed by evacuation and drainage of the pseudotumor via endoscopic endonasal approach and replacement of factor VII pre-and post-operatively. To our knowledge, this is the first case of nasal hemophilic pseudotumor managed by evacuation and drainage through an endoscopic endonasal approach, which was deemed successful.
