A Case of a Constricted Vessel: The Impact of Acute Myeloid Leukemia on the Superior Vena Cava.
Article in Cureus, 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
Acute myeloid leukemia (AML) is the most prevalent form of leukemia in adults, with rising global incidence rates. AML usually presents with non-specific clinical features such as pallor, fever, and bleeding. This case report discusses a unique presentation of AML, where a 25-year-old female with a history of hypertension presented with unilateral facial swelling, chest pain, and shortness of breath. Radiologic investigations revealed a mediastinal mass encasing the superior vena cava (SVC), confirming the suspicion of SVC syndrome. Upon testing with a biopsy, the mass was found to be composed of immature myeloid cells confirming the diagnosis of myeloid sarcoma-associated AML. The patient's treatment involved a combination of surgical debridement, induction chemotherapy, supportive care, and management of complications. This case highlights that despite its common occurrence, AML may present with atypical clinical manifestations such as SVC syndrome, posing challenges in its diagnosis and timely management.
