A Huge Abdominal Wall Inflammatory Myofibroblastic Tumor: A Report of a Rare Case and Literature Review.
Article in Cureus, 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
An inflammatory myofibroblastic tumor (IMT), frequently misdiagnosed as a malignant neoplasm, is a rare tumor characterized by the presence of myofibroblastic spindle cells and infiltration of inflammatory cells. In the current study, a 49-year-old female patient with a huge abdominal mass in the left abdominal wall was examined. Diagnostic procedures included blood tests, as well as ultrasound, Doppler, and computed tomography (CT) scans, which revealed the presence of a huge complex multiloculated cystic lesion measuring 30 x 37 x 20 cm. The patient underwent complete excision of the mass. Histopathological examination confirmed the benign nature of the tumor and revealed no evidence of malignancy. A comprehensive review of the available literature shows that the current case is one of the few documented cases. The report concluded by emphasizing the importance of surgical intervention as the primary therapeutic strategy and the crucial role of histopathology in the diagnostic process.
