Leptomeningeal Carcinomatosis of Prostate Cancer: A Case Report and Review of the Literature.
Article in Reviews in urology, 2020. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 6 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
Leptomeningeal carcinomatosis is a rare complication of prostate cancer. It is likely underdiagnosed as suggested by autopsy studies and is expected to become more prevalent with increasing survival of prostate cancer patients. Prostate cancer leptomeningeal carcinomatosis is associated with rapid functional decline and a median survival of approximately 1 month. Diagnosis is challenging because the clinical manifestations are varied, and no gold-standard diagnostic approach exists. Treatment of prostate cancer leptomeningeal carcinomatosis is not standardized and multiple approaches have been reported, mostly as case studies. Herein we report a case of a 73-year-old patient with metastatic castration-resistant prostate cancer who presented to our clinic with subacute cognitive decline, ataxia, and urinary incontinence, and was found to have leptomeningeal carcinomatosis.
