En-bloc resection of large anterior chest wall chondrosarcoma with myocutaneous flap closure.
Article in Indian journal of thoracic and cardiovascular surgery, 2025. 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
Primary chondrosarcoma of the chest wall is uncommon but spreads aggressively. The primary treatment is radical excision because it is comparatively resistant to chemotherapy and radiation. When such massive tumors are removed with safety margins, a significant chest wall defect remains, necessitating reconstruction. Reconstruction has involved the use of materials such as titanium plates, polypropylene mesh with methyl methacrylate, sternal steel wires, etc. Chest wall reconstruction with muscle flaps alone after en-bloc resection of chondrosarcoma with extensive mediastinal and thoracic involvement is rarely performed, nowadays. We report a case of massive chondrosarcoma resected en-bloc with a bilateral pectoralis major myocutaneous flap reconstruction.
