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

Metastases are the most common malignancy in bone. In patients with bone metastases, especially if a limited expected survival, the indications for surgical treatment are limited, immediate pain relief and improvement in the functional status are important, and complications of treatments are unwanted. Novel medical treatments can offer an effective palliative option in these patients. Advances in interventional radiology and surgery have led to the development of less invasive techniques with the aim to achieve the same clinical results with less surgical morbidity. These include embolization, electrochemotherapy, magnetic resonance imaging-guided high-intensity focused ultrasound, and thermal ablation. Less invasive techniques combine the advantages of less invasive procedures including decreased blood loss, earlier functional recovery and initiation of adjuvant medical therapies and seem to be both effective in pain relief and local tumor control.
