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

backgroundDermatofibrosarcoma protuberans (DFSP) is a rare soft tissue malignancy with aggressive growth.

objectiveTo summarize the surgical treatment and results of DFSP based on a case series and literature review.

methodsSeventeen DFSP cases were analyzed retrospectively at our hospital from June 2016 to December 2022, including 14 males and 3 females. All these cases were treated by wide local excision with negative margins. Postoperative follow-up was performed to observe recurrence, survival, and the effect of wound repair.

resultsRoutine postoperative pathology confirmed the morphological subtypes of these cases, including 12 cases of classical DFSP, 3 cases of DFSP-fibrosarcoma, 1 case of myxoid, and 1 case of Bednar. The median defect size was 72 cm

conclusionWide local excision with negative margins can achieve a favorable prognosis in classical DFSP. The use of flaps for reconstruction results in better appearance and function.
