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

Introduction: Low-grade fibromyxoid sarcoma is an uncommon deep-seated soft-tissue sarcoma that occurs rarely in young adults and children. Although surgical resection provides a long-term prognosis, late local recurrence and metastasis may occur. Case presentation: A 44-year-old woman with no prior medical history presented with breathing and abdominal discomfort. Contrast-enhanced computed tomography scan revealed a retroperitoneal tumor protruding into the thoracic cavity and pleural effusion on the left side. Tumor biopsy revealed sarcoma. We performed complete resection of the tumor along with part of the diaphragm and replaced the diaphragm with a prosthetic patch. Histopathologic findings indicated low-grade fibromyxoid sarcoma. The patient experienced no postoperative complications and received no adjuvant therapy. Furthermore, she survived 4 years after surgery without recurrence. Conclusion: Complete surgical resection is effective for low-grade fibromyxoid sarcoma; therefore, it is important to plan appropriately for complete resection when biopsy reveals malignant findings.
