A case of uterine carcinosarcoma which was strongly suspected to have metastases to the psoas and gluteus muscles.

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
Metastasis to the skeletal muscles is uncommon. We report a case which was strongly suspected to have psoas and gluteus muscle metastases from uterine carcinosarcoma. A 68-year-old woman (gravida, 2; para, 0) underwent retroperitoneal endoscopic paraaortic lymphadenectomy, laparoscopic modified radical hysterectomy, bilateral salpingo-oophorectomy and pelvic lymphadenectomy for uterine carcinosarcoma, suspected to be stage IB. Metastasis to one right pelvic lymph node was observed. Ascites fluid cytology was negative. Postoperative pathological examination revealed stage IIIC1 (pT1bN1M0) disease. Five cycles of chemotherapy with paclitaxel + carboplatin were performed. 10 months after chemotherapy, serum cancer antigen-125 level was elevated. Computed tomography (CT) revealed a 3-cm tumor of the left psoas muscle and magnetic resonance imaging revealed a tumor of the left gluteus maximus muscle. These lesions showed fluorodeoxyglucose uptake in positron emission tomography-CT. Because we considered the tumors were metastases of uterine carcinosarcoma, we recommended her chemotherapy. However, after one cycle of chemotherapy, the patient underwent immunotherapy elsewhere with immune checkpoint inhibitors. 5 months after the recurrence, she was alive.
