1 · What the graph read from 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.

2 · The registry

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

Epithelioid soft tissue tumors consist exclusively of epithelioid tumor cells. Biphasic tumors are composed of both a spindle-cell and an epithelioid component. The rare mixed tumors of soft tissue show a broader variety of cellular and stromal differentiation but also include at least one, possibly several, epithelioid portions.The close morphological similarity of some of these entities with each other, as well as with the more frequent soft tissue metastases of carcinomas, carcinosarcomas, and melanomas, to malignant mesothelioma and certain lymphomas, can often make the correct diagnosis extremely difficult. Recent advances in the detection of certain molecular alterations (mostly chromosomal translocations) have contributed to changes in tumor classification but also to improved pathological diagnostics (e.g. through the development of potent diagnostic antibodies) and biological understanding.The present overview should help the pathologist in the diagnosis of these rare tumors through the classical approach of morphological pattern recognition. The most important entities are discussed and illustrated in more detail, with the incorporation of the latest immunohistochemical and molecular aspects and the differential diagnosis of similar tumors.
