Retroperitoneal malignant solitary fibrous tumor with second recurrence and lymphatic metastases: A case report.
Article in Oncology letters, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 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
Malignant solitary fibrous tumor (SFT) in the retroperitoneum is rare. The present study reported on the case of a 67-year-old man who had retroperitoneal SFT for ~13 years, which resulted in two recurrences and lymphatic metastases. After the second recurrence, the patient presented with hematochezia and multiple retroperitoneal masses were found through computed tomography (CT). Histopathological examination showed that the tumor was mainly comprised of short spindle cells, arranged into sparse and dense areas. Mitotic figures were observed, generally 6-8 mitoses/10 high power fields, along with local necrosis. The tumor invaded the circumferential liver, intestines, lymphatic vessels and lymph nodes. Combined with the immunohistochemical results, it was diagnosed as a malignant SFT, which regrew just 2 months after the latest surgery. Retroperitoneal SFTs with repeated relapses, infiltrative growth and lymphatic metastasis suggest the need for careful and long-term follow-up.
