Spontaneous splenic rupture as a primary manifestation of angiosarcoma: a case report.
Article in Journal of surgical case reports, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 4 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
Angiosarcoma, a rare endothelial cell tumor, accounts for < 2% of all sarcomas, typically affecting elderly patients. We present the case of a 62-year-old male with a history of hypertension and ischemic heart disease, who initially presented with severe lower back pain. Subsequent imaging revealed a ruptured splenic lesion and multiple liver lesions, leading to a diagnosis of stage 4 angiosarcoma. Post-splenectomy, the patient exhibited pathological vertebral fractures and elevated liver function tests, consistent with metastatic disease. Despite aggressive surgical intervention and supportive care, the patient's condition remained critical. The treatment plan included palliative chemotherapy, spine radiotherapy, and ongoing pain management, with close monitoring of disease progression and response to therapy. This case describes the diagnostic challenges and poor prognosis associated with metastatic angiosarcoma.
