1 · What the graph read from it

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.

2 · The registry

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

Soft tissue sarcomas are rare tumours of mesenchymal cells which can arise in all parts of the body. Sarcomas of the trunk and abdominal cavity are a very heterogeneous group of tumours. This review focuses on retroperitoneal sarcomas, which tend to be asymptomatic for a long time, resulting in an advanced stage at presentation in most patients. Surgical resection is the basis for cure in these patients, possibly combined with radiation. In contrast to extremity sarcomas, the majority of patients with retroperitoneal sarcomas succumb to an isolated local recurrence of the disease. In case of local recurrence or distant metastases, surgical resection should again be contemplated.
