Cowden Syndrome: A Rare Cause of Intestinal Polyposis.
Article in Cureus, 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
Cowden syndrome (CS) is a rare autosomal dominant genodermatosis disorder. This disease is characterized by the development of several hamartomata lesions in a variety of tissues from all three embryonic layers. The most well-known hamartomata are those of the gastrointestinal system, which represent one of the major criteria for the diagnosis of CS. Yet, the most frequent initial presenting symptom of the disease is thought to be mucocutaneous symptoms such as trichilemmomas, acral keratosis, and oral papilloma. Early diagnosis and management are essential to improving the quality of life for patients with CS as this disorder predisposes them to cancers such as thyroid, breast, gastrointestinal, and endometrial cancers. This report presents a rare case of CS in a Bahraini child who presented with macrocephaly and had numerous intestinal polyposis. Genetic testing using whole exome sequencing confirmed the diagnosis, identifying a pathogenic de novo phosphatase and tensin homolog gene (
