Malignant Triton Tumor of the Distal Femur: A Case Report and Review of the Literature.
Review in In vivo (Athens, Greece). The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 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
BACKGROUND/
aimMalignant triton tumor (MTT) is a rare, highly aggressive malignant nerve sheath tumor with rhabdomyoblastic differentiation. The overall 5-year survival rate is extremely low, and no standardized treatment exists. We report a case of MTT in the distal femur that was treated with surgery and chemotherapy. CASE REPORT: A 16-year-old male was referred to our hospital due to severe pain during physical activity and difficulty in walking. He showed no café-au-lait spots and no family history of Neurofibromatosis-1. He underwent an incisional biopsy and was diagnosed with MTT of the distal femur. After administering preoperative chemotherapy using adriamycin, ifosfamide, and cisplatin, wide resection surgery was performed for MTT. Subsequently, postoperative chemotherapy using methotrexate, in addition to the agents mentioned above, was administered. One and a half years after the surgery, he can walk without pain, and there are no signs of local recurrence or metastasis.
conclusionThe combined modality treatment, integrating chemotherapy and surgery, has successfully prevented local recurrence and accomplished favorable outcomes without lung metastasis.
