Calcifying fibrous tumor of stomach: a rare case report of an upper gastrointestinal bleeding.

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
Introduction: Calcifying fibrous tumor (CFT) is an uncommon benign fibrous neoplastic lesion that may manifest as singular or multiple tumors and usually occurs in children or young adults. CFT originates in the muscularis propria of the stomach and is a very rare disease. Here, we report a case of gastric CFT with upper gastrointestinal bleeding. Case information: A 39-year-old male was urgently referred to our hospital with haematemesis and melena that had developed over the course of 2 hours. Enhanced abdominal CT imaging revealed a nodular lesion, measuring approximately 3.2 × 2.1 × 1.6 cm, protruding from the posterior wall of the gastric body into the gastric lumen. The lesion exhibited scattered calcifications, smooth margins, and a CT attenuation value of 50 Hounsfield units (HU). Gastroscopic ultrasonography performed in the gastroenterology department revealed a semicircular submucosal mass with signs of active bleeding. Initially, the tumor was diagnosed as a gastrointestinal stromal tumor (GIST), and surgical intervention was undertaken due to ongoing hemorrhage. Postoperative histopathological examination confirmed the diagnosis of a gastric calcifying fibrous tumor (CFT). Conclusion: CFT originating from the muscularis propria of the stomach is exceptionally rare, and the case presented here mimicked a gastric submucosal tumor (SMTs),clinicians should consider this differentia diagnosis when evaluating patients with suspected cases.
