An Unusual Presentation of Choriocarcinoma in a Postmenopausal Woman: A case report.
Article in Sultan Qaboos University medical journal, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 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
Choriocarcinoma (CC) is a malignant neoplasm of the trophoblastic tissue, with a potential to metastasise to distant organs. Limited case of gestational CC develops after a long latent period. We report a 52-year-old postmenopausal woman who developed metastatic choriocarcinoma presumably of gestational origin, 8 years after the last pregnancy and 2 years after the last menstrual period. The patient was brought to the emergency room of a tertiary care centre in Muscat, Oman, in 2022 and was diagnosed with CC metastatic to the brain, spleen, lung and the kidney. The β-human chorionic gonadotrophin level was found to be raised (1,292,867 mIU/mL). The International Federation of Gynecologic Oncology risk score was calculated to be 14 (very high risk). The patient was initially treated with whole-brain radiotherapy and splenic artery embolisation because of a hemoperitoneum. Afterwards the patient received systemic treatment using the standard EMA/CO regimen till complete serological remission.
