Impact of time to first relapse on long-term outcome in adult retroperitoneal sarcoma patients after radical resection.

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
backgroundLocal recurrence of primary retroperitoneal sarcoma (RPS) is one of the major causes of treatment failure and death. We attempted to assess the effects of time to local recurrence (TLR) on the survival after recurrence (SAR) and overall survival (OS) of RPS.
methodsIncluded in this study were 224 patients who underwent R0 resection for primary RPS at our institution between January 2000 and December 2020, 118 of whom had local recurrence. Based on the median TLR (19.8 months), patients were divided into two groups: early local recurrence (ELR < 20 months) and late local recurrence (LLR > 20 months). The Kaplan-Meier method was employed to calculate the local recurrence-free survival (LRFS), SAR and OS. Univariate and multivariate analyses were conducted to explore the prognostic value of TLR.
resultsThe median follow-up time was 60.5 months for the entire cohort and 58.5 months for the recurrence cohort. There were 60 (50.8%) patients in the ELR group and 58 (49.2%) in the LLR group. The ELR group exhibited a worse SAR (29.2 months vs. 73.4 months, P < 0.001), OS (41.8 months vs. 120.9 months, P < 0.001), and a lower 5-year OS rate (35.9% vs. 73.2%, P = 0.004) than the LLR group. Furthermore, multivariate analysis indicated that TLR was an independent prognostic indicator for SAR (P = 0.014) and OS (P < 0.001).
conclusionsIn patients with RPS, ELR after R0 resection presents adverse effects on OS and SAR than those with LLR, and TLR could serve as a promising predictor for OS and SAR.
