1 · What the graph read from 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.

2 · The registry

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

opinion statementManagement of leiomyosarcoma is based on the specifics of each individual case. Specifically, the location of the disease and whether the disease is metastatic or localized and if localized disease, whether the tumor is resectable or unresectable. In patients with recurrent or metastatic disease, factors such as disease-free interval and pattern of spread should be considered within the context of treatment planning. In general, patients with metastatic disease are typically treated with systemic chemotherapy with either an anthracycline-based regimen or gemcitabine-based regimen as first-line therapy. Additional systemic options include trabectedin, pazopanib, eribulin, and DTIC. Uterine LMS has been the most studied site-specific LMS with respect to systemic therapy. The increasing use of tumor genomics may ultimately define subsets which may benefit from tailored systemic therapies.
