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

introductionParatesticular liposarcoma is a rare variant of genitourinary malignancy. This malignancy accounts for less than 12 % of all liposarcomas. Approximately 200 cases of paratesticular liposarcoma have been reported. Giant paratesticular liposarcoma sizing over 10 cm is rarer, with only a few reported cases. Due to the rarity of this disease, there are no standardized guidelines regarding its incidence, diagnostic, recurrence, and treatment. CASE PRESENTATION: A 73-year-old male came to the hospital with a painless left scrotal mass three years ago. The patient had an ultrasound examination of the left scrotal, which proved a solid mass and hypervascular on the left testicular. Abdominopelvic computed tomography (CT) showed a solid-cyst masses, size ±16,6 × 9,6 × 18,2 cm, lobulated, contrast enhancement with no sign of metastatic disease. The patient had radical orchiectomy without any complications. Histopathological and immunohistochemistry examination (Vimentin, MDM2, dan CDK4) showed well-differentiated liposarcoma. CLINICAL DISCUSSION: Radical orchiectomy is the best curative therapy. Adjuvant chemotherapy and radiotherapy benefit is still inconclusive. The patient had followed up for two years after surgery found no recurrent mass and metastatic. The well-differentiated type has a better prognosis but has a high incidence of local recurrence if incompletely excised. The result showed that this approach produces excellent outcomes without any relapse.

conclusionGiant Paratesticular Liposarcoma is a rare condition that can be managed by radical. Long-term follow-up is importance to observe the relapse of this malignancy.
