Prolonged response to exemestane following multiple surgical resections and hormonal therapies in a patient with recurrent endometrial stromal sarcoma.
Article in Gynecologic oncology reports, 2016. 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
backgroundEndometrial stromal sarcomas (ESSs) are rare, indolent tumors with high recurrence rates. Management includes surgery and hormonal therapy given high estrogen and progesterone receptor (ER/PR) expression. CASE: A pre-menopausal patient with stage II ESSs (ER +/PR +) underwent primary surgery followed by adjuvant megestrol. Recurrence in the bladder/upper vagina (ER +/PR -) was diagnosed one year later and treated with anterior pelvic exenteration and adjuvant letrozole. Two years later she recurred and was treated with radical surgery and adjuvant exemestane therapy (tumor ER strongly +/PR +). The patient then had a five-year disease free interval before being diagnosed with her third recurrence (ER +).
conclusionExemestane treatment for ESSs can lead to a prolonged response, even in the setting of progression after prior aromatase inhibitor treatment.
