Telangiectatic soft tissue sarcoma and chronic expanding haematoma: a comparative review of MRI features.
Review in Skeletal radiology, 2021. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 5 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
Soft tissue sarcomas containing a dominant component of haemorrhage are known to be aggressive tumours associated with a poor prognosis. Importantly, the clinical behaviour and imaging characteristics of extensively haemorrhagic soft tissue sarcomas (also termed telangiectatic soft tissue sarcomas) can resemble those of benign haematomas, particularly those that continue to expand over a prolonged period, so-called chronic expanding haematomas (CEH). The following review evaluates the current literature to identify the clinical, imaging and pathological characteristics of telangiectatic soft tissue sarcomas and to determine features that may help distinguish them from CEH. Ultimately, we suggest that lesions with sizeable regions of internal haemorrhage should be regarded with a high degree of suspicion for underlying malignancy and require referral to a tertiary sarcoma centre, where a carefully planned approach to biopsy and follow-up is needed to avoid errors in diagnosis.
