Giant retroperitoneal liposarcoma: A case report and literature review.
Article in Journal of Taibah University Medical Sciences, 2019. 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
Retroperitoneal liposarcomas are a heterogeneous group of mesenchymal tumours that have a wide spectrum of histological subtypes and vague clinical presentations. Herein, we present the case of a 75-year-old man with anorexia, weight loss of 7 kg, and a growing abdominal circumference within a span of 6 weeks. Computed tomography of the abdomen and pelvis showed a large mass that filled almost the entire abdominal cavity. After consultation with a multidisciplinary tumour board, en bloc resection of the tumour was performed. In addition, the left kidney and a part of the left diaphragm were removed. The tumour measured 35 × 29 × 20.5 cm and weighed 11.6 kg. The histological report confirmed low-grade dedifferentiated liposarcoma with scarce atypical adipocytes, lipoblasts containing spindle cell, pleomorphic, and chondroid components. The patient had uneventful recovery and remained stable during the follow-up period. We report this case to highlight the need for customized surgical oncological measures in the treatment of solid abdominal tumours due to locoregional invasion that usually necessitates en bloc resection.
