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

We present a case of successful resection of a fourth recurrence of oligometastatic myxoid liposarcoma to the retroperitoneum. This case highlights the importance of centralised sarcoma centres with high surgical and patient volume, extensive perioperative work-up and the multidisciplinary management of patients with sarcoma. Perioperative work-up included a CT coronary angiogram, which identified intraventricular cardiac metastasis. The patient underwent a successful resection of the cardiac lesion prior to laparotomy, excision of right iliac fossa mass with en bloc ileocolic resection, excision of right adrenal metastasis and insertion of right JJ stent.
