Ischemic fasciitis in a mobile elderly patient: A case report.
Article in Experimental and therapeutic medicine, 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
Ischemic fasciitis (IF) is a rare pseudosarcomatous lesion usually occurring in physically debilitated or immobilized, elderly patients. The current case presents a 76-year-old mobile man with IF on his back. The 33-mm subcutaneous lesion, focally involving the latissimus dorsi muscle, had been slowly increasing in size for 2 months and was clinically suggested to be a soft-tissue sarcoma. The fragmented biopsy specimens showed a chiefly scattered proliferation of spindle or stellate cells with plump nuclei within myxofibrous stroma. Zonation was not evident, but the lesion contained fibrinous deposits. These findings indicated a possible diagnosis of IF. The lesion spontaneously disappeared 5 months after the biopsy. The presence of fibrin-like deposits within myxofibrous stroma could be a hallmark for the correct diagnosis of IF.
