Follicular dendritic cell sarcoma in the right chest wall: A case report.
Article in Medicine, 2020. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper.
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
rationaleFollicular dendritic cell sarcoma (FDCS) is a rare malignant tumor that originates from germinal center follicular dendritic cells, and can occur at both nodal and extranodal sites. There are very few described cases of FDCS arising in the chest wall. PATIENT CONCERNS: A 44-year-old male patient presented with a history of right chest wall pain for 5 months. DIAGNOSES: Positron emission tomography/computed tomography showed a significant increase in F-fluorodeoxyglucose uptake and multiple small axillary lymph nodes without hypermetabolic lesions. Immunohistochemistry results of a core-needle biopsy indicated FDCS, which was consistent with the postoperative pathological examination.
interventionsThe patient underwent tumor resection with lymphadenectomy of level I axillary nodes. No metastasis in the lymph nodes was observed in the postoperative pathological examination. The patient did not accept chemotherapy or radiotherapy. OUTCOMES: After 18 months, the patient remains in good condition with no evidence of disease recurrence. LESSONS: This report highlights a rare case of a FDCS arising in the chest wall. Accurate clinical diagnosis and staging of this rare malignant sarcoma is essential for the developmnt of effective treatment strategies. Preoperative F-fluorodeoxyglucose positron emission tomography/computed tomography scanning combined with core-needle biopsy could provide differentiation between benign and malignant tumors, as well as lymph node involvement and metastatic status.
