External fetus in fetu presenting in the second trimester: A case report and literature review.
Article in Clinical case reports, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper.
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
Fetus in fetu (FIF) is a rare congenital anomaly that originates from various sites of the host twin's body. The clinical manifestations of FIF are diverse and the location and size of FIF indicate the degree of threat, which may directly affect the prognosis. A 33-year-old woman presented at the hospital with an abdominal mass in her fetus. Prenatal ultrasound observed that mass included soft tissue, bone-like structures, and fluid. Immature cartilage, nerve tissue, muscle tissue, and glands in the parasitic fetus without signs of neoplastic lesions were reported by histological examination. CNV (copy number variation) and WES (whole exome sequencing) did not detect any abnormal mutations. FIF can continue to grow with gestational age or host infant growth. So complete resection is essential for improving the outcome of the host twin. It is also important that long-term follow-up is recommended to monitor any residual or recurrent cysts or malignancies.
