Retroperitoneal cystic lymphangioma coexisting with a uterine fibroid in a 42-year-old woman: A case report.
Article in Case reports in women's health, 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
Lymphangiomas are rare benign neoplasms traditionally thought to result from congenital lymphatic channel malformations, though they may also be associated with other conditions. Retroperitoneal lymphangiomas account for 1% of all lymphangiomas, and fewer than 200 cases have been reported. A 42-year-old woman was admitted with symptoms of abdominal pain and distension. A computerized tomography (CT) scan showed an abdomino-pelvic mass and a giant uterine myoma. The patient underwent explorative laparotomy and the whole cyst mass was removed along with the uterine myoma. Cystic lymphangiomas are often misdiagnosed because of the vague symptoms and the absence of obvious etiology. A provisional diagnosis can be made with CT but histological examination confirms the diagnosis. Cystic lymphangioma should be included in the differential diagnosis of an ovarian cystic mass. Complete resection can be curative.
