Sarcoidosis: Solitary Pulmonary Mass Masquerading As Lung Cancer.
Article in Cureus, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper.
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
Sarcoidosis is a multisystem inflammatory disease of unknown cause with a wide variety of presentations. It primarily involves the lungs and intrathoracic lymph nodes, as well as the eyes, skin, spleen, and liver. Very rarely, it can present as a solitary lung mass. We present a case of a 60-year-old female who presented with an erythematous plaque on her face associated with irritation. Initial imaging detected a well-defined lobulated mass in the right middle and lower lobes of the lung. A biopsy of the mass revealed non-caseating granulomas, suggestive of sarcoidosis.
