Bladder carcinosarcoma treated by cystectomy and adjuvant chemotherapy with good outcomes: a case report.
Article in Journal of medical case reports, 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
backgroundPrimary carcinosarcoma of the bladder is a rare and highly aggressive tumor, representing less than 1% of all bladder neoplasms. There is no specific treatment guideline has for carcinosarcoma of the bladder, and majority of published patients was treated exclusively by surgery. CASE PRESENTATION: We report a case of 65-year-old Moroccan man, presented with macroscopic hematuria, pollakiuria and painful urination. Histological analysis showed a biphasic epithelial and mesenchymal proliferation, with invasion of lamina propria and muscularis, compatible with diagnosis of bladder carcinosarcoma. The patient was treated with cystectomy and adjuvant chemotherapy based on gemcitabin-cisplatin, 18 months after treatment, patient still free of recurrence.
conclusionCarcinosarcoma of the urinary bladder is a rare and aggressive tumor regardless treatment. A multidisciplinary management based on radical cystectomy and combined adjuvant treatments can improve prognosis. In this work, we suggest to propose adjuvant chemotherapy whenever possible.
