Surgical management and outcome of spinal alveolar soft part sarcoma (ASPA): a case series of five patients and literature review.
Review in World journal of surgical oncology, 2017. 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
backgroundAlveolar soft part sarcoma (ASPS) is a rare entity of soft tissue malignancies with uncommon spinal involvements. Surgical management should be the best choice of cure.
methodsFive patients with spinal ASPS were interviewed retrospectively, where data was collected. The relevant literatures were also systematically examined. Thereafter, patient and surgical data were obtained and pooled for prognostic analysis.
resultsA total of five patients with eight surgeries were reviewed retrospectively, and three patients previously reported were also included. All patients were surgically treated, where five of them underwent additional adjuvant therapies such as chemotherapy, radiotherapy, and targeted therapy in order to manage their local and/or systematic diseases. One patient was lost in follow-up. For the remaining seven patients, the mean follow-up period was 19.7 ± 8.8 months, two succumbed to disease while five were alive at the time of the study.
conclusionsSurgical management is shown to be the most important and the most effective treatment strategy for spinal ASPS, whereas adjuvant therapies made little impact. The prognostic factors for spinal ASPS are primary or metastatic lesions, neurological status, disease progression, systematic conditions, and resection approaches.
