The Long-Term Outcomes of Intensive Combined Therapy of Adult Patients with Localised Synovial Sarcoma.
Article in Journal of clinical medicine, 2020. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 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
introductionSynovial sarcoma (SaSy) is a high-grade, malignant soft tissue sarcoma (STS) accounting for 5-9% of STS. The aim of this study was to analyse outcomes of patients with localised SaSy treated in a single institution with a uniform neo- and adjuvant-combined therapy protocol.
methods171 patients with stage II/III SaSy were treated between 1997 and 2014. Chemotherapy consisted of 4 cycles of ifosfamide 12 g/m
resultsMedian age was 33 years (range 17-69). Tumours larger than 5 cm in size were found in 70% of patients. The 5-year overall survival (OS), local relapse-free survival (LRFS) and metastasis-free survival (MFS) rates were 75%, 80% and 60%, respectively. In multivariate Cox's regression, age > 35 years, male sex, larger tumour size and histology other than monophasic were associated with worse OS.
conclusionsIn adult patients with localised SaSy, long-term survival can be achieved in a significant proportion of cases with intensive combined therapy. The multivariate analysis identified age, sex, disease stage and histology subtype as independent prognostic factors of OS.
