Current management of lipoblastoma.
Article in European journal of pediatrics, 2018. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 20 papers, 1 of them a synthesis that pooled 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.
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
Lipoblastoma is a rare and benign tumor arising from embryonal fat cells. It is generally diagnosed in children younger than 3 years of age and can occur in the extremities or on the trunk. We present our series of 10 children with lipoblastoma treated at Schneider Children's Medical Center of Israel between 2011 and 2016. Six boys and four girls underwent tumor resection at a median age of 2 years and 3 months (range 5 months to 5.6 years). Locations were trunk (6), groin (2), perineum (1), and omentum (1). Follow up ranges from 1 to 5 years. Two patients had a local recurrence and required a second resection 2 years (perineal) and 6 years (trunk) after the first surgery without further recurrence at 1.9 and 2.9 years, respectively.
conclusionHigher awareness of lipoblastoma enables optimal imaging strategies and resection. Long follow up is required due to local recurrences. The treatment of choice consists of complete, but non mutilating surgical resection. What is Known: • Lipoblastoma is a rare benign tumor of fatty tissue affecting children • Treatment consists of surgical resection What is New: • MRI is the modality of choice for follow up • Ten-year long-term follow up is required due to late recurrence.
