Where is the radiobiology and pharmacology research to improve outcomes in glioblastoma?
Review in Journal of neuro-oncology, 2015. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 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
Personalized medicine has been helpful for drug development in diseases with single and relatively stable gene mutations. The benefit for complex solid tumours with heterogeneous and changing genetic profiles is less clear. Whether it is efficient to continue diverting resources from combined biological and pharmacological approaches to trial new and existing genetic 'targeted therapies' for brain tumours is unknown but of developing concern in resource constrained environments.
