Neck Epithelioid Sarcoma at an Unusual Location Mimicking Lymph Node Metastases of Nasopharyngeal Carcinoma: A Case Report.
Article in Cureus, 2024. 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 uncommon soft tissue sarcoma. It is usually located in the extremities and exceptionally in the neck. Its diagnosis constitutes a real challenge which is based on histology and immunohistochemistry staining that must be interpreted with caution given the anatomopathological similarities to other tumors. In this article, we report a case of a 37-year-old man admitted for a locally advanced ES of the neck. There were suspicions of lymph node metastases of nasopharyngeal carcinoma at the first pathological examination. The patient received palliative chemotherapy and was referred to the supportive care department. Through this case, we will discuss the clinical and anatomopathological characteristics and therapeutic options of this extremely rare tumor which poses a diagnostic challenge.
