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

Liposarcoma is a common occurrence over retroperitoneum. However, dedifferentiated liposarcoma is an uncommon variety affecting the small bowel mesentery, making it a rarity. We report a case of 56-year-old male presented with the lump in the abdomen. Computed tomography abdomen revealed well-defined space-occupying lesion. Laparotomy was done and mass was excised along with segment of ileum to achieve negative margin. Histopathology and immunohistochemical study helped in determining mass to be dedifferentiated liposarcoma of mesentery. Therefore, liposarcoma should be considered in differential diagnosis of abdominal mesenchymal tumors. Surgical resection to achieve negative margin is the mainstay of treatment for mesenteric liposarcomas.
