Multiple surgical excision for bilateral multiple mediastinal liposarcoma: a case report.
Article in Journal of surgical case reports, 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
Multiple giant mediastinal liposarcomas are rare and associated with a high propensity for recurrence. Surgical management is extremely challenging and carries substantial risks. Here we report the case of a 40-year-old male patient who underwent multiple surgical resections for mediastinal liposarcoma. In April 2016, the patient presented with an intrathoracic mass and underwent right thoracotomy at our institution; postoperative histopathology confirmed a myxoid liposarcoma. Over the following decade, the patient received six cycles of chemotherapy and two cycles of anlotinib. In 2025, due to progressive dyspnea and chest tightness, chest computed tomography revealed multiple giant masses in the mediastinum and pleural cavity. In December 2025, the patient underwent resection of mediastinal tumors via a left seventh intercostal thoracotomy, followed by another resection via a right seventh intercostal thoracotomy in April 2026. Postoperative recovery was uneventful.
