Systemic Treatment of Soft Tissue Sarcomas in the Geriatric Population.
Review in Current treatment options in oncology, 2022. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 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
opinion statementAs the population ages, there will be an increase in the incidence and prevalence of soft tissue sarcoma (STS) within the geriatric population. As this disease disproportionately affects older adults, the percentage of adults >65 years old is expected to increase in the coming years. Geriatric patients are often more vulnerable to disease-related symptoms and have more difficulty tolerating treatment-related side effects. While there are no formal existing guidelines to direct the care of this geriatric patient population, it is of utmost importance to consider each patients' fitness and co-morbidities when selecting treatment plans. This review focuses on the current state of research of older adults with advanced or metastatic soft tissue sarcoma, highlighting the lack of representation of this patient population in clinical trials. Given that chronological age does not necessarily equate to physiologic age, integration of comprehensive geriatric and quality of life assessments is needed in the care of geriatric patients to help guide therapeutic decisions.
