Propensity for different vascular distributions and cerebral edema of intraparenchymal brain metastases from different primary cancers.
Article in Journal of neuro-oncology, 2019. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 10 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
purposeThis study seeks to ascertain whether different primary tumor types have a propensity for brain metastases (BMs) in different cerebral vascular territories and cerebral edema.
methodsConsecutive adult patients who underwent surgical resection of a BM at a tertiary care institution between 2001 and 2011 were retrospectively reviewed. Only patients with the most common primary cancers (lung, breast, skin-melanoma, colon, and kidney) were included. Preoperative MRIs were reviewed to classify all tumors by cerebral vascular territory (anterior cerebral artery-ACA, lenticulostriate, middle cerebral artery-MCA, posterior cerebral artery-PCA, posterior fossa, and watershed), and T2-weighted FLAIR widths were measured. Chi square analyses were performed to determine differences in cerebral vascular distribution by primary tumor type, and one-way ANOVA analyses were performed to determine FLAIR signal differences.
results669 tumors from 388 patients were classified from lung (n = 316 BMs), breast (n = 144), melanoma (n = 119), renal (n = 47), and colon (n = 43). BMs from breast cancer were less likely to be located in PCA territory (n = 18 [13%]; χ
conclusionsThese findings suggest that different primary tumor types could have propensities for different cerebral vascular territories and cerebral edema.
