Low-Grade Fibromyxoid Sarcomas with the Maxillary Sinus Localization: A Case Report and Review of the Literature.

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
A low-grade fibromyxoid sarcoma (LGFMS) is an extremely rare tumor first described by Evans in 1987. LGFMS is a type of soft tissue sarcoma characterized by a deceptively benign histological appearance but completely malignant behavior. LGFMS is usually seen in the deep soft tissues of the extremities and trunk. We have examined many reviews, case reports and case series previously published in PubMed and Google Scholar. To date, only five cases have been reported in the maxilla. LGFMS generally affects young adults, but it can also be seen in children and older adults. A radical surgical approach is the most recommended treatment option. LGFMS has a very low mitotic activity; therefore, it is considered that neither chemotherapy nor radiotherapy has a significant effect on long-term LGFMS prognosis. However, to date, there has been no study suggesting any protocol for the follow-up of patients with LGFMS. In this report, we present a case with LGFMS located in the maxillary sinus, in which despite radiotherapy following extensive surgical excision, the tumor recurred in a short period of three months and reached its former size.
