Treatment of metastatic rectal squamous cell carcinoma in a pregnant patient.
Article in BMJ case reports, 2024. 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
Rectal squamous cell carcinoma is an exceedingly rare form of rectal cancer, with limited data available regarding its presentation and effective treatment. Rectal cancer occurring during pregnancy is uncommon as well. This is a case of metastatic rectal squamous cell carcinoma presenting in a 22-week pregnant, female patient in her early 30s. The patient was treated with 5-fluorouracil and cisplatin and delivered a healthy male child born via uncomplicated vaginal delivery at 35 weeks. This article demonstrates that despite the rare nature of this cancer, in the already rare context of pregnancy, effective and safe treatment is possible with a multidisciplinary team.
