1 · What the graph read from it

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.

2 · The registry

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

Radiosurgery (SRS) is widely used in the treatment of brain oligo-metastases from NSCLC. The aim of present study is to evaluate the extent of perilesional edema in brain metastases as predictive factor of treatment response. This single center retrospective study included 42 consecutive patients (January 2011-December 2014) with 1-2 brain metastasis from NSCLC treated with Radiosurgery (SRS). Extent of perilesional edema was measured as maximal extension from the edge of lesion and classified as minor (<10 mm) or major (≥10 mm). We analyzed Modality of Brain Recurrence (MBR), classified as in-field or out-of- field, and Brain Progression Free-Survival (BPFS) after treatment stratified according to extent of perilesional edema. Analyzing modality of brain recurrence and BPFS, after a median follow-up of 6 months, we found that patients with minor edema had a better radiological response to SRS with none in-field recurrences and a lower risk of the onset of new brain lesions (out-of-field recurrence). Instead, patients group with major edema had a worse response rate of lesions treated, further, a higher risk of out-of-field brain relapse. Extent of perilesional edema in brain metastasis from NSCLC could be a predictive factor of response and brain progression after SRS treatment alone.
