A rare case of carcino-sarcoma of the esophagus with huge intrathoracic metastasis.
Article in Journal of surgical case reports, 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
Carcinosarcoma of the esophagus constitutes only 0.5%-2.8% of all malignant esophageal cancers. It is identified by the presence of both carcinomatous and sarcomatous components. A clear regimen of treatment has not been established due to the limited understanding of the disease. We present a case of carcinosarcoma of the esophagus with rapid recurrence and invasion to the intrathoracic cavity only 6 weeks after esophagectomy. Carcinosarcoma carries a poor prognosis, as it has a late tendency of hematogenous spread with a high growth rate.
