Synchronous epithelioid sarcoma of bilateral thigh: a rare case report and literature review.
Article in Frontiers in oncology, 2026. 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
Epithelioid sarcoma(ES) is an exceedingly rare soft-tissue sarcoma, accounting for approximately 1% of all soft-tissue sarcomas. Despite its typically indolent clinical course, ES carries a substantial risk of local recurrence and distant metastasis, underscoring the importance of early recognition. However, diagnosis is often delayed because clinical suspicion is low and ultrasonography(US)/magnetic resonance imaging(MRI) are frequently nonspecific. In this report, a 47-years-old woman was admitted after incidentally noticing egg-sized masses on the medial aspects of both mid-thighs for one week. Lower Extremity US and Lower Extremity MRI both failed to correctly diagnose the bilateral thigh tumors. Histopathological examination demonstrated malignant tumors arising from skeletal muscle in both thighs. Immunophenotypic findings confirmed a diagnosis of classic-type ES. We further review the literature to summarize the clinical and US/MRI characteristics of ES and to highlight diagnostic pitfalls and current therapeutic strategies.
