Low-grade fibromyxoid sarcoma of the liver: A case report.
Article in World journal of clinical cases, 2021. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 8 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
backgroundLow grade fibromyxoid sarcoma (LGFMS) is a rare and benign mesenchymal tumor with indolent course, most commonly found in young or middle-aged men. The majority of the LGFMSs are located in the trunk and deep soft tissue of the lower extremities. They appear as well circumscribed, although not encapsulated, which often leads to incomplete surgical resection. Despite their seemingly benign appearance, these tumors have aggressive behavior with high metastatic and recurrence rates. Accurate histopathologic examination of the specimen and its immunohistochemical analysis are mandatory for a precise diagnosis. CASE SUMMARY: We report a case of a 38 year-old-man who presented with jaundice and upper abdominal discomfort. Multi-detector computed tomography and magnetic resonance imaging showed a large left liver tumor mass, extending to the hepatoduodenal ligament. Left hepatectomy was performed with resection and reconstruction of hepatic artery and preservation of middle hepatic vein. Histopathologic examination confirmed the tumor being a low-grade fibromyxoid sarcoma. Three and a half years after surgery, the patient died after being diagnosed with spine metastasis.
conclusionDue to poor response to all modalities of adjuvant treatment, we consider that the focus of treatment should be on surgery as the only option for curing the disease.
