Low-Grade Fibromyxoid Sarcoma of the Back.
Article in Cureus, 2021. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
A 29-year-old male presented with a seven-year history of a slow-growing, painless, firm, mobile mass in the right upper back that was bothersome when supine or with direct pressure. On initial presentation, a clinical diagnosis of lipoma was given. The mass progressively increased in size over several years but remained painless. The mass measured 15 x 10 cm on examination. Excision of the lesion was performed, which revealed a white cut surface with cystic degenerative changes. Histologically, the lesion revealed spindle cell morphology with occasional mitosis. Diffuse immunohistochemical staining with MUC4 supports a diagnosis of low-grade fibromyxoid sarcoma (LGFMS). Tumor was present with focal extension into the deep margin. However, serial magnetic resonance imaging studies performed suggest no residual disease and negative regional lymph node involvement. This case demonstrates the growth pattern of LGFMS, but also denotes the importance of correlating radiological and pathological features to accurately diagnose and treat these tumors in a timely fashion.
