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 in adults and therefore require a multidisciplinary approach for optimal management. In the metastatic setting, chemotherapy is the primary modality of therapy. Doxorubicin alone or in combination with ifosfamide or dacarbazine has been the backbone of therapy since the 1970s. There is considerable activity for gemcitabine and docetaxel in leiomyosarcoma and for paclitaxel in angiosarcoma. Newer agents such as trabectedin and eribulin may have a role in certain sarcoma subtypes. Palifosfamide may offer a safer alternative to ifosfamide in the future. Many sarcomas have molecular aberrations that can be targeted. Agents that inhibit the insulin-like growth factor receptor-1, mammalian target of rapamycin and vascular endothelial growth factor are currently being investigated.
