Successful treatment of infantile fibrosarcoma spinal metastasis by chemotherapy and stereotactic hypofractionated radiotherapy.
Article in Journal of Korean Neurosurgical Society, 2013. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 6 papers.
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
We report a case of infantile fibrosarcoma in an 8-month-old boy manifested as a right-sided lower leg mass. Repeated local recurrence and distant metastasis were noted during the following three-year period. Whole body fluoro-deoxyglucose positron emission tomography scan revealed an asymptomatic metastasis involving the fourth lumbar vertebrae. The patient received chemotherapy (VAC regimen) with Cyberknife® stereotactic hypofractionated radiotherapy (26 Gy; 4 fractions). This treatment reduced tumor size by 23% without acute radiation toxicity even after 33 months. This case suggests that combining chemotherapy and this form of radiotherapy may be safe and effective against childhood spinal metastasis.
