Linear accelerator-based radiosurgery and hypofractionated stereotactic radiotherapy for brain metastasis secondary to gynecologic malignancies: A single institution series examining outcomes of a rare entity.
Article in Gynecologic oncology reports, 2018. 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
objectiveThe use of SRS and fSRT to determine overall survival, tumor control, and local-disease free progression in patient diagnosed with gynecologic brain metastasis.
methodsIn this retrospective review, 11 patients aged 50 to 85 (median age of 71) were treated with linear accelerator-based SRS and hypofractionated SRT for brain metastasis secondary to gynecologic malignancies. In total, 16 tumors were treated from 2007 to 2017. Patients were treated to a median dose of 24 Gy (range 15 to 30 Gy) in 3 Fx (range 1 to 5). Median follow-up from SRS or SRT was 4 months (range 3-38 months).
resultsThe actuarial 1-year overall survival rate was 26% with a median overall survival of 8 months. In addition, 1-year actuarial local control rate was 83.3% and the 1-year distant brain control rate was 31%. One patient experienced toxicity that presented as seizures after 7 months (due to minimal edema) that required anticonvulsants. There was no other acute or late treatment-related toxicity.
