Sister Mary Joseph Syndrome: A Report of a Rare Case.
Article in Cureus, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 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
The Sister Mary Joseph syndrome is characterized by cutaneous metastases localized at the umbilical level. It is a rare clinical sign estimated to occur in 1%-3% of patients with abdominopelvic cancer. The most common histology is adenocarcinoma (75% of cases). The presence of this nodule is often indicative of a poor prognosis, with average survival estimated at two to 11 months without treatment. We report the clinical case of Sister Mary Joseph syndrome in a 50-year-old woman who had been followed for three years for endometrioid adenocarcinoma of the endometrium. The diagnosis was established via umbilical biopsy after a computed tomography scan revealed the presence of an umbilical nodule. The patient is currently undergoing a palliative chemotherapy regimen.
