Primary perianal alveolar rhabdomyosarcoma with uncommon metastatic sites: a case report and follow-up using
Article in Frontiers in 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
Background: Rhabdomyosarcoma (RMS), a rare pediatric soft tissue neoplasm, predominantly develops in late childhood and adolescence with no discernible gender bias. Alveolar rhabdomyosarcoma (ARMS) stems from mesenchymal cells and may develop most frequently in the trunk, extremities, and head/neck areas, while occurrences in the pelvic cavity are less frequent. The manifestation is typically characterized by a high rate of aggressive metastasis and a poor overall survival prognosis. Case report: We present the case of an 11-year-old girl with ARMS initially presenting with a perianal mass. The diagnostic workup included MRI and PET/CT, which highlighted the tumor's aggressive nature and metastatic potential. Subsequent metastases to the pleura, lymph nodes, and, less frequently, to the bone were detected using 2-deoxy-2-[fluorine-18]-fluoro-D-glucose positron emission tomography combined with computed tomography ( Conclusion: This report presents a rare case of ARMS primarily located in the perianal region with multiple metastases, including the uncommon occurrence of bone metastasis, which illustrates the challenges in diagnosing and treating ARMS, emphasizing the need for accurate and early diagnosis, advanced imaging for disease assessment, and more effective treatment strategies.
