Giant jejunal gastrointestinal stromal tumour (GIST) in a young female: a fatal case of diagnostic delay revealed at autopsy.

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
Gastrointestinal stromal tumours (GIST) are rare mesenchymal neoplasms comprising less than 1% tumours. Originating from the interstitial cells of Cajal. These mostly affect the stomach, followed by the small intestine. Among the small intestine, jejunal involvement is particularly uncommon and rare. They are present in the older population and are small in size. Giant forms, female gender, young population, and jejunal involvement are a combination of exceptionally rare entities individually and combined. We report this rare combination wherein a young female, brought dead to the emergency with a protruded abdomen with a deluded diagnosis of pregnancy at first instance, was sent for medicolegal autopsy, revealing a giant, ruptured, aggressively progressive jejunal GIST. Despite undergoing a biopsy, a definitive diagnosis was not achieved, delaying appropriate diagnosis, which ultimately led to death.
