Clinical effect of surgical resection on primary malignant and invasive bone tumours of the proximal fibula.
Article in Molecular and clinical oncology, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 papers, 1 of them a synthesis that pooled 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.
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
There is no unified surgical plan for fibular proximal malignant tumours; therefore, the present study retrospectively analysed the medical records of 19 patients with primary malignant and invasive tumours in the proximal fibula and discussed the postoperative oncological results, complications and postoperative functions of limb salvage surgery. According to pathological classification, there were 10 osteosarcoma cases, 3 chondrosarcoma cases, 2 invasive giant cell osteosarcoma tumour cases, 1 epithelioid sarcoma case, 1 leiomyosarcoma case, 1 fibrosarcoma case and 1 lymphoma case. According to the Enneking instalment, IB stage was found in 2 cases, IIA in 2 cases and IIB in 15 cases. A total of 3 patients underwent Malawer I resection, and 16 patients underwent Malawer II resection. The follow-up period was 11-174 months, with an average of 76.58 months. Local recurrence occurred in three patients and distant metastasis in seven patients; 4 patients succumbed and 15 survived. After biceps femoris tendon reconstruction and lateral collateral ligament insertion, 18 patients had good knee stability. The Musculoskeletal Tumour Society scale ranged between 23 and 29 points, with an average of 27.26 points; the Lysholm Knee Score was 65-84 points, with an average of 83 points. After the resection of proximal fibula primary and invasive tumours, the biceps femoris tendon and lateral collateral ligament insertion point was reconstructed. The data show that this technique can effectively reconstruct stability and restore knee function.
