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

Although cardiac metastases (CM) are more common than primary cardiac malignant tumors, they remain a rare localization of metastatic cancer. Until recently, CM were surgically treated as a palliative approach because of a lack of ablative solutions even for oligometastatic patients. Technological advances in radiation therapy (RT) in thoracic oncology have led to high precision delivery that enlarged the indications for stereotactic body radiotherapy (SBRT). To date, there are limited reports of cardiac SBRT for CM. Herein, we report a cardiac SBRT performed in curative intent for a lung cancer patient metastatic to the heart.
