Article in Journal of contemporary brachytherapy, 2019. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 9 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
Large brain metastases are presently treated with surgical resection and adjuvant radiotherapy. However, local control (LC) for large tumors decreases from over 90% to as low as 40% as the tumor/cavity increases. Intraoperative brachytherapy is one of the focal radiotherapy techniques, which offers a convenient option of starting radiation therapy immediately after resection of the tumor and shows at least an equivalent LC to external techniques. Our center has pioneered this treatment with a novel FDA-cleared cesium-131 (
