Desmoid Fibromatosis Fused With a Lipoma in the Upper Arm.
Article in Cureus, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
Lipoma, the most common mesenchymal tumor, often appears as a slow-growing mass in the musculoskeletal system (MSK). While generally non-invasive, their location can cause symptoms. Desmoid fibromatosis (DF), a rare and locally aggressive neoplasm, poses challenges in MSK system diagnosis and management due to its infiltrative nature. Despite lacking metastatic potential, DF has a high recurrence rate, classifying it as "intermediate, locally aggressive" in the WHO classification. Collaborative efforts among orthopedic surgeons, radiologists, and pathologists are crucial for accurate diagnosis and treatment planning for all tumors of the MSK system. This case report presents the first documented example of a DF within a lipoma, highlighting the challenges of diagnosing and treating musculoskeletal tumors.
