Accelerated Unilateral Radiographic Huntingtonian Changes Following Neoadjuvant Chemotherapy for a Nongerminomatous Germ Cell Tumor Leading to Identification of Occult Disease in the Dorsal Striatum.
Article in Journal of pediatric hematology/oncology, 2016. 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
Basal ganglia nongerminomatous germ cell tumors comprise 10% to 15% of germ cell tumor and have substantial morbidity at the time of local failure. In this submitted image we present a case where neoadjuvant chemotherapy unmasked a unilateral caudate head loss consistent with Huntingtonian changes. Careful review of the patient's imaging identified disease within the dorsal striatum that was not previously identified at the time of diagnosis. Review of the diffusion tensor fractional anisotropy imaging identified progressive white matter likely secondary to the occult disease within the dorsal striatum. Although this patient was asymptomatic and had no signs of a movement disorder, similar findings have been noted to be a prelude to such findings several months later. The occult disease was incorporated into the patient's radiotherapy planning target volume as oversight of these changes would have led to a marginal miss and potential early disease relapse.
