Primary malignant melanoma of the small bowel: A case report.
Article in Radiology case reports, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 7 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
Malignant melanoma comprises 1%-3% of all malignant tumors of the gastrointestinal tract. The small bowel melanoma is an extremely rare malignancy. Very few cases have been reported in the literature. The small intestine is mostly affected by the metastatic tumors of the primary lesions especially cutaneous. This malignancy is diagnosed at the late stages as the patient remains asymptomatic. In this report we present a case of malignant melanoma arising from the small bowel in a 58-year-old male. There was no primary lesion in the eye, skin, anus, rectum or elsewhere in the body. The patient was treated with surgery. Afterward the patient presented to the emergency room with respiratory distress for which he was on ventilator support, sadly the patient died after 10 days. Malignant melanoma is an aggressive tumor and does not respond well to chemotherapy or radiotherapy.
