Advanced Magnetic Resonance Imaging in the Evaluation of a Chronic Non-healing ulcer - A Case Report of Rare Primary Cutaneous Leiomyosarcoma.
Article in Journal of orthopaedic case reports. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 papers.
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
introductionPrimary cutaneous leiomyosarcoma of the skin is extremely uncommon superficial soft tissue sarcoma. The uniqueness of this case is the exceedingly rarity of the tumor and its potential to be clinically misdiagnosed as squamous cell carcinoma. We report an interesting and rare case of PCL with unusual clinical presentation. CASE REPORT: Our case documents the radiological approach and importance of newer magnetic resonance imaging sequences in helping the diagnosis of a rare case of primary en plaque cutaneous leiomyosarcoma of lower extremity in a 60-year-old male, farmer by occupation with superficial ulceration and local invasion presenting as chronic non-healing ulcerative lesion.
conclusionContrast-enhanced MRI when coupled with advanced imaging sequence such as magnetic resonance spectroscopy and diffusion-weighted imaging further increases malignant probability of the lesion and guides the surgeon for a definite treatment plan.
