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

Rectal leiomyosarcoma is a rare neoplasm, and no standard therapeutic strategy has been established, other than surgical resection. The prognosis of advanced leiomyosarcoma in the rectum is poor. We describe a case of a 47-year-old man with a locally advanced rectal leiomyosarcoma who presented with anal bleeding and lower abdominal pain. After discussions by a multidisciplinary team (MDT), the patient received preoperative pelvic short-course radiotherapy followed by laparoscopic-assisted abdominoperineal resection. Adjuvant chemotherapy with doxorubicin and ifosfamide was administered postoperatively. Local recurrence was detected 13 months after the resection. The patient received chemotherapy with gemcitabine and docetaxel followed by radioactive particle implantation. Thereafter, apatinib was administered to gain systemic control. The patient died 24 months after the diagnosis. This case report draws attention to treatment with multidisciplinary therapy, as discussed by MDT, for rare locally advanced rectal leiomyosarcoma.
