Deep-seated intermuscular lipoma of posterior neck muscles: a case report and review of literature.
Article in Journal of surgical case reports, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper.
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
Lipomas are the most common soft tissue tumours, accounting for nearly 50% of all soft tissue neoplasms. Among the types of lipomas, intermuscular lipomas are rare. We report the case of a 46-year-old man with a deep-seated lipoma located between the trapezius and splenius capitis muscles in the posterior neck triangle. A successful surgical excision was performed. This case highlights challenges in diagnosis, surgical management, and the importance of complete excision in minimizing the risk of recurrence. This type of lipoma remains relatively understudied; therefore, further studies are needed to increase awareness of its incidence, clinical presentation, diagnostic evaluation, and optimal management.
