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

Liposarcoma is a rare malignant tumor of mesenchymal origin. It accounts for ~7% of all mesenchymal sarcomas and 1% of cancers in general. Its incidence does not exceed 2.5 cases per million inhabitants per year. This tumor is generally locally invasive, often diagnosed at an advanced stage, and can grow to a considerable size and weight, culminating in a locally advanced form. We report a case of a 65-year-old patient with retroperitoneal liposarcoma treated by open surgical resection. The patient was admitted for the management of an abdomino-pelvic mass measuring 40 × 27 × 17 cm, progressively evolving over 5 years. The diagnosis was established by computed tomography scan. The postoperative course was uneventful, and after 1 year of chemotherapy, the patient died of respiratory distress.
