Massive Extraluminal gastrointestinal stromal tumour with pelvic extension: case report and mini-review of the literature.
Article in Oxford medical case reports, 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
Large extraluminal gastrointestinal stromal tumours (GISTs) are rare, with varied presentations and patient profiles. This report discusses the case of a 22-year-old female presenting with a 4-month history of lower abdominal pain, weight loss, and recurrent urinary tract infections. Imaging revealed a large intra-abdominal mass (9.3 × 15.3 × 18.9 cm) originating from the stomach, extending into the pelvis, and compressing adjacent structures. During surgery, the mass was found to arise from the lesser curvature of the stomach and adhered to the transverse colon, with non-adherent extension into the pelvis and compression of adjacent organs. A gastric wedge resection and transverse colectomy were performed with aim of achieving a R0 resection. Histopathological analysis confirmed a GIST and positive resection margins. A plan for adjuvant imatinib was initiated in accordance with the European Society for Medical Oncology (ESMO) guidelines. This article details the challenges faced in the management of such a rare presentation and highlights similar reports.
