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

backgroundCIC-rearranged sarcomas (CIC-RS) represent the most frequent subset of "Ewing-like" undifferentiated small round cell sarcomas. These tumors tend to be more aggressive than Ewing sarcomas. Moreover, treatment strategy can differ according to teams. The primary aim of this retrospective study was to describe the characteristics, treatments, and outcome for patients with CIC-RS included in the French NETSARC+ database.

methodsPediatric and adult patients from 13 French centers with a diagnosis of CIC-RS were registered from October 2008 to March 2021. Patients and tumors characteristics were collected from the national network NETSARC+ database (http://netsarc.sarcomabcb.org). CIC-RS diagnosis was pathologically and molecularly confirmed with a central review by expert pathologists. Two groups of patients were studied: those treated as classical Ewing sarcomas (cohort EwS) and those treated as high-grade soft tissue sarcomas (cohort STS) according to ESMO and/or EpSSG guidelines. Survival was calculated using the Kaplan-Meier method and the log-rank test was used to compare survival.

resultsAmong 79 patients, the male/female sex ratio was 0.7 and the median age at diagnosis was 27 years (range 2-87). With a median follow-up of 37 months, 39 patients died of the disease. Median overall survival from diagnosis was 18 months, with no significant difference between both cohorts (p = 0.9). Nevertheless, when focusing on patients with metastatic disease at diagnosis (N = 21), all patients from cohort STS died of disease while some patients from cohort EwS were still alive and in complete remission.

conclusionFSG experience confirms the aggressive clinical course of CDS patients regardless of chemotherapy regimen.
