The Third-Time Recurrence of a Thoracic Solitary Fibrous Tumor in a Patient Presenting With Paraneoplastic Hypoinsulinemic Hypoglycemia (Doege-Potter Syndrome).
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
We present a case of a 76-year-old Caucasian female with a recurrent solitary fibrous tumor (SFT) of the pleura, showcasing a rare manifestation of hypoglycemia associated with Doege-Potter syndrome (DPS). Having undergone two previous surgeries for SFT, the patient presented to the emergency department with severe fatigue, recurrent episodes of loss of consciousness, and hypoglycemia, despite lacking a history of diabetes mellitus. Radiological evaluation revealed a substantial recurrent SFT in the left lung, prompting excision through a left posterolateral thoracotomy. Remarkably, the patient's altered mental status and hypoglycemia resolved postoperatively. The case meets the criteria for aggressive SFT behavior, warranting consideration for adjuvant radiation therapy to control the risk of recurrence. This report highlights the nuanced interplay between SFT recurrence, paraneoplastic syndromes like DPS, and the potential benefits of adjuvant therapeutic strategies in managing these complex clinical scenarios.
