Cervical Superficial Myofibroblastoma Presenting as a Polyp: A Rare Benign Entity.
Article in Journal of mid-life health. 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
Superficial myofibroblastoma of the lower female genital tract is a rare and recently identified benign mesenchymal tumor with only 57 cases reported till now. Majority of the cases are described in the vagina and few cases in the cervix and vulva. It may present as a polypoid or cystic mass, and few cases are detected incidentally. It has a unique morphology and immunohistochemical features. The entity may mimic other benign and malignant conditions of the female genital tract and hence pose a diagnostic challenge. Here, we describe a patient with cervical superficial myofibroblastoma who presented with bleeding per vaginum and polyp in the cervix. Morphology and immunohistochemical findings helped in the final diagnosis. Awareness of this rare benign entity can help us to differentiate superficial myofibroblastoma from many aggressive entities and thus prevent radical surgeries.
