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

High-grade myofibroblastic sarcoma (HGMS) is exceedingly rare and highly aggressive, with a poor prognosis. Currently, there is no consensus on its definition. Wide resection is the standard of care for most patients, but clinical data on treatment outcomes remain limited. Here, we present the first reported case of HGMS originating intracranially. Surgical excision of the tumor was performed, followed by adjuvant radiotherapy with a total dose of 60 Gy in 30 fractions. As of November 2024, the patient had achieved 24 months of recurrence-free survival. This case may provide new evidence that could be useful for the treatment of rare primary intracranial HGMS.
