Hidden in Muscles: A Case Study of Intramuscular Lipoma.
Article in Cureus, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
This case report presents a 64-year-old male with a giant intramuscular lipoma on the right lumbar region's latissimus dorsi muscle. The patient presented with painless swelling, which gradually increased over six years. Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) confirmed the presence of the lipoma, prompting surgical intervention. The surgical procedure involved meticulous dissection and complete excision of the tumor. Histopathological examination validated the diagnosis. Comparative analyses with similar cases highlighted variations in surgical approaches and the challenges in managing intramuscular lipomas. This case emphasizes the importance of considering intramuscular lipomas in soft tissue mass differentials and the significance of comprehensive management strategies for optimal patient outcomes.
