Malignant adipocytic tumours: A 20‑year single‑centre retrospective study.

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
Adipocytic tumours are the most common soft tissue neoplasms. Among them, liposarcoma is the most frequent malignant neoplasm. However, to the best of our knowledge, no previously published study has assessed the evolution and oncological prognosis of the different subtypes of liposarcoma at the retroperitoneal level compared with at other locations. The present study is a retrospective observational study in which all patients were operated on between October 2000 and January 2020 with a histological diagnosis of liposarcoma. Variables, such as age, sex, location, histological type, recurrence, type of treatment and mortality, among others, were analysed. The patients were divided into two groups: Group A (retroperitoneal location) and group B (non-retroperitoneal location). A total of 52 patients with a diagnosis of liposarcoma (17 women and 35 men) and a mean age of 57.2±15.9 years were assessed. A total of 16 patients were classified into group A and 36 into group B. The OR of recurrence was 1.5 (P=0.02) for R1 vs. R0 resection in group A. The OR of recurrence in group B for R1 vs. R0 resection was 1.8 (P=0.77), whereas for R2 vs. R0 resection, the OR was 69 (P=0.011). In conclusion, 52 cases of malignant adipocytic tumours collected during 2000-2020 were analysed with the new World Health Organization classification (updated 2020). Although its recurrence potential and capacity for distant metastasis depended on each histological type, surgical treatment with unaffected margins was the main prognostic factor for survival. The present study identified differences in relation to the survival of each histological subtype and its location, finding greater survival in dedifferentiated liposarcoma, myxoid liposarcoma and pleomorphic liposarcoma located at the extraperitoneal level than in the retroperitoneal location. Resectability was not influenced by liposarcoma location.
