An Atypical Lipomatous Tumor of the Forearm: A Case Report.
Article in Journal of orthopaedic case reports, 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
Introduction: Atypical lipomatous tumor (ALT) is a rare, well-differentiated and low-grade liposarcoma originating in deep soft tissue compartments of extremities and trunk. The optimal surgical treatment in the upper extremity is still controversial. Some Authors suggest the wide excision of the mass including the sacrifice of the muscle-surrounding tumor, others recommend the marginal resection of the lesion. Case Report: We report a case of a 58-year-old patient who underwent the "simple" marginal resection of an ALT in the forearm by sparing the muscles surrounding the lesion. After 60 months, the patient is asymptomatic with no recurrence of the mass and a total recovery for activities of daily living. Conclusion: Based on our experience the simple marginal resection "en bloc" is the gold standard for skilled hand surgeons to preserve neurovascular structure with no recurrences at medium-term follow-up.
