Treatment of esophageal cancer with multiple liver metastases: a case experience of sustained complete response.
Article in The Journal of international medical research, 2020. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
Esophageal squamous cell cancer with distant metastases has a poor prognosis. The metastatic sites usually involve the liver, bones, and lungs. Treatment of metastatic disease is essentially palliative and based on chemoradiotherapy. A 57-year-old man with a solitary metastatic mass of 82 × 58 mm in the left liver was treated on 19 October 2012. Irinotecan and cisplatin combination chemotherapy and nimotuzumab targeted therapy were administered. The liver metastatic mass was treated by stereotactic Gamma Knife radiosurgery. Complete remission of the primary disease and hepatic lesion was achieved, and no local or distant recurrence was found during the 7-year follow-up. Because extrahepatic lesions were ruled out and the local disease was completely locoregionally controlled, the use of stereotactic Gamma Knife radiosurgery to remove the hepatic lesion was justified and produced a reasonable outcome.
