Intramuscular Hemangioma of the Tongue: Imaging Features of a Rare Entity.
Article in Cureus, 2026. 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
Intramuscular hemangioma (IMH) is a rare benign vascular tumor arising from skeletal muscle. Head and neck involvement is rare, with tongue muscles being extremely rare. IMHs present as a slow-growing mass. They are painless; however, sometimes, they may cause speech difficulties or bleeding. Imaging is essential for diagnosis and surgical planning. Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) provides superior soft tissue characterization. This is a case report of a 25-year-old woman with a complaint of a painless swelling over the dorsum of the tongue. MRI revealed a well-circumscribed, lobulated lesion appearing hyperintense on T2-weighted imaging (T2WI), with few flow voids, showing intense post-contrast enhancement. Complete transoral excision was performed, and histopathology confirmed the lesion as an intramuscular cavernous hemangioma. This case focuses on the importance of multimodality imaging and radio-pathological correlation in the diagnosis and management of rare intramuscular tongue hemangiomas.
