Characterization of lipomatous tumors with high-resolution
Article in Frontiers 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
Background: Distinguishing between some benign lipomas (BLs), atypical lipomatous tumors (ALTs), and dedifferentiated liposarcomas (DDLs) can be challenging due to overlapping magnetic resonance imaging characteristics, and poorly understood molecular mechanisms underlying the malignant transformation of liposarcomas. Purpose: To identify metabolic biomarkers of the lipomatous tumor spectrum by examining human tissue specimens using high-resolution Materials and methods: In this prospective study, human tissue specimens were obtained from participants who underwent surgical resection for radiologically-indeterminate lipomatous tumors between November 2016 and May 2019. Tissue specimens were obtained from normal subcutaneous fat (n=9), BLs (n=10), ALTs (n=7) and DDLs (n=8). Extracts from specimens were examined with high-resolution MRS at 17.6T. Computational modeling of pattern recognition-based cluster analysis was utilized to identify significant differences in metabolic signatures between the lipomatous tumor types. Results: Significant differences between BLs and ALTs were observed for multiple metabolites, including leucine, valine, branched chain amino acids, alanine, acetate, glutamine, and formate. DDLs were distinguished from ALTs by increased glucose and lactate, and increased phosphatidylcholine. Multivariate principal component analysis showed clear clustering identifying distinct metabolic signatures of the tissue types. Conclusion: Metabolic signatures identified in
