Chronic Myelomonocytic Leukemia (CMML) as a Rare Cause of Spontaneous Atraumatic Splenic Rupture in a 65-Year-Old Male.
Article in Cureus, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
This report describes a patient with a history of chronic thrombocytopenia who presented with splenic rupture and hemorrhagic shock in the absence of trauma. Four days earlier, the patient had visited the emergency department with symptoms of sore throat, fever, and myalgia. Due to the relatively benign presentation, further workup was deferred in favor of a presumed infectious etiology. This delay in diagnosis led to the patient presenting with life-threatening injuries, necessitating an emergent splenectomy. Subsequent evaluation revealed an underlying diagnosis of chronic myelomonocytic leukemia (CMML), which ultimately caused the splenic rupture. This case underscores the importance of considering hematologic malignancies, including rare pathologies like CMML, in the differential diagnosis of atraumatic splenic rupture (ASR).
