Giant Mediastinal Desmoid-Type Fibromatosis in the Puerperium: A Case Report.
Article in International journal of women's health, 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
Objective: To report a rare case of giant mediastinal desmoid-type fibromatosis (DTF) in the puerperium, with emphasis on the challenges of determining optimal surgical timing in the early postpartum period. Methods: Retrospectively analyzed clinical data of a 25-year-old postpartum woman with giant mediastinal DTF presenting with chest pain, dyspnea, and dysphagia after cesarean section. Imaging revealed a massive tumor causing severe cardiac and pulmonary compression. The patient underwent surgical resection 27 days postpartum. Results: The successfully resected tumor weighed approximately 5.5 kg. Postoperative pathology confirmed DTF. The patient recovered well without serious complications. Conclusion: Giant mediastinal DTF in the puerperium is extremely rare and presents significant surgical challenges. For postpartum cases presenting with severe compressive symptoms, individualized assessment of surgical timing is crucial, weighing the risks of early postpartum intervention against potential life-threatening cardiopulmonary compromise. Multidisciplinary collaboration is key to successful management.
