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

Myxoid liposarcoma is the most frequent form of liposarcoma, frequently localized in the extremities. Abdominal liposarcomas more commonly arise from the retroperitoneum. However, primary mesenteric localization is extremely rare. To the best of our knowledge, 22 cases have been reported in English literature. The diagnosis is often delayed by the insidious evolution of this tumor. On radiological examination, primary mesenteric liposarcoma presents as a large mass that entrapped the small bowel loops. The treatment requires complete tumor resection. We report an observation of mesenteric myxoid liposarcoma in a 64-year-old female patient, revealed by an abdominal mass associated with abdominal pain. The treatment consisted of complete tumor removal. Histologically, the tumor proved to be a myxoid liposarcoma. No adjuvant treatment was considered necessary. The patient recovered well after the operation. The aim of reporting this case is to present an uncommon clinical entity because of its huge dimensions, the rarity of the site, and histological pattern.
