Melanotic neuroectodermal tumor of infancy of the shoulder in a 4-month-old infant: Case report.
Article in Radiology case reports, 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
Melanotic neuroectodermal tumor of infancy (MNTI) is a rare, benign yet locally aggressive tumor, that typically arises in the maxillofacial region in young infants. We report a 4-months-old male child presented with 2 months history of a swelling in the right shoulder. Imaging revelated a mass in close contact with the aponeurosis of the deltoid and biceps muscles, initially suggestive of a sarcomatous origin. Immunohistochemistry study was done confirming the diagnosis of MNTI. Neoadjuvant chemotherapy reduced tumor volume enabling safe and complete resection preserving neurovascular and shoulder function. MNTI should be considered in the differential diagnosis of aggressive soft tissue or bone masses in infants, even in atypical locations such as the shoulder.
