Treatment of intimal sarcoma of peripheral veins.
Article in International journal of surgery case reports, 2017. 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
introductionIntimal sarcoma is an extremely rare group of undifferentiated pleomorphic sarcoma arising from the intimal layer of vessels accounting for only 1% of all sarcomas, intimal sarcoma of large veins are even less common. CASES PRESENTATION: We present two cases of intima sarcoma, one originated form the basilar vein and the other from the cephalic vein, the first one was treated with surgery and postoperative chemotherapy followed by Radiotherapy (RT), the second case was treated with isolated limb perfusion followed by marginal resection and RT. Both patients progressed to the lungs in a short time, the first case was treated with metastasectomy of the lung and is without evidence of disease 7months after surgery; the second case treated with isolated limb perfusion has stable disease. DISCUSSION: Intimal sarcoma are very aggressive tumors, with a high metastatic potential, the two patients progressed to lung in a short time (2months) after local treatment. Both cases exhibit good response to chemotherapy and metastasectomy with a disease - free period of 7months.
conclusionWe propose that given the aggressive behavior of these tumors, they should be treated with chemoradiotherapy postoperative, either by systemic chemotherapy or isolated limb perfusion for the limp sparing surgery in this histology.
