Myxoid Pleomorphic Liposarcoma of the Spermatic Cord: A Rare Entity at a Rare Site.
Article in Cureus, 2024. 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
Myxoid pleomorphic liposarcoma (MPLPS) is an extremely rare entity that has been recognized and included in the literature recently. Liposarcomas are adipocytic tumors that are usually located in the extremities and retroperitoneum. Paratesticular liposarcomas are extremely rare malignant tumors originating from the adipose tissue of the paratesticular region. Myxoid pleomorphic liposarcoma (MPLPS) is an exceedingly rare variant of liposarcoma, with very few cases reported in the literature so far. Mediastinum is the most common site for MPLPS followed by the limbs, head, and neck. We report a case of a 50-year-old male patient who presented with a swelling in the right inguinal region, which came to the patient's attention in the past month. After investigations, a right-high orchidectomy was done. Histopathological examination and immunohistochemistry were performed and a diagnosis of myxoid pleomorphic liposarcoma (MPLPS) involving the spermatic cord was made. So here we report this case of myxoid pleomorphic liposarcoma involving the spermatic cord for the first time in the literature.
