CT-Guided Preoperative Localization With Coil Placement for Surgical Resection of a Phosphaturic Mesenchymal Tumor: A Case Report and Review of the Literature.
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
Phosphaturic mesenchymal tumor (PMT) is a rare neoplasm characterized by excessive secretion of fibroblast growth factor 23 (FGF23) and renal phosphate wasting, leading to osteomalacia and subsequent pathological fractures. These tumors are typically small and slow-growing, which limits their detection. The diagnostic key lies in the use of functional imaging studies such as gallium-68 DOTA-Tyr³-octreotate (68Ga-DOTATATE) positron emission tomography/computed tomography (PET/CT), along with structural imaging modalities such as magnetic resonance imaging (MRI), for the identification of the primary tumor. Definitive treatment consists of complete surgical resection, which normalizes phosphate levels and resolves the patient's symptoms. We present a diagnostically successful case of a PMT using CT-guided preoperative coil localization before surgical excision, a procedure not previously reported in the literature for these tumors.
