Undifferentiated Pleomorphic Sarcoma Presenting With Cardiac Tamponade: A Case Report and Review.
Review in Journal of investigative medicine high impact case reports. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 5 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
Soft tissue sarcomas (STS) comprise a large group of heterogeneous malignant tumors that form approximately 1% of all adult malignancies. Most sarcomas originate from soft tissue and the rest arise from the bone. Undifferentiated pleomorphic sarcoma (UPS) is an aggressive tumor that usually presents as an asymptomatic subcutaneous mass that exhibits rapid growth with unremarkable skin findings. The diagnosis is usually made with histopathology or immunohistochemistry; once the diagnosis is confirmed, evaluation and workup of the primary tumor, lymph nodes, and metastasis should be made. Treatment is stage-dependent but generally involves en-bloc resection followed by a review of pathology with a discussion of the benefits of adjuvant radiation or chemotherapy. Here, we discuss a case of a 77-year-old patient who presented with a large mass over the right shoulder and echocardiographic findings of cardiac tamponade.
