Giant myxoid liposarcoma of the stomach: Report of a case.
Article in International journal of surgery case reports, 2019. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 4 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
introductionLiposarcoma is one of the most common soft tissue sarcomas in adults, but liposarcoma arising primarily from the stomach is very rare. PRESENTATION OF CASE: A 56-year-old man was referred to our hospital with abdominal distension and discomfort. A computed tomography scan showed a huge mass located between the stomach and transverse colon. The preliminary differential diagnoses were sarcoma with a mucinous component, gastrointestinal stromal tumor, lymphangioma, and mesenteric cyst. Upper and lower endoscopy was not performed because the patient declined. The patient underwent surgical resection, and the tumor was completely removed. Macroscopic examination revealed a 39-×26-×20-cm tumor weighing 13,000g. On histological examination, the tumor was diagnosed as a myxoid liposarcoma in the gastric submucosa. The patient was still doing well 2 years postoperatively. DISCUSSION: Preoperative diagnosis of liposarcoma of the stomach is difficult. In the present case, the tumor was very large but was able to be resected completely.
conclusionEven in patients with very large myxoid liposarcoma, curative resection can provide a good prognosis.
