Adrenal oligometastasis cured with stereotactic ablative radiotherapy.
Article in Radiology case reports, 2020. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper.
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
Stereotactic ablative radiotherapy (SABR) has emerged as an effective, noninvasive alternative to surgery in patients with oligometastatic disease. Historically, select patients with adrenal oligometastases have been treated with adrenalectomies which can offer durable local control and reasonable survival rates. SABR is a promising noninvasive treatment alternative to surgery capable of delivering ablative doses of radiation to the tumor with the goal of achieving durable local control of adrenal metastases. We report on a case of a patient who underwent initial surgical resection for a locally advanced lung adenocarcinoma and subsequently developed an early, biopsy-proven, oligometastatic recurrence in the adrenal gland. He underwent chemotherapy and SABR using CyberKnife to the adrenal metastasis and is in remission 7 years after treatment with no late toxicity. Fractionated SABR is an attractive noninvasive alternative to surgery for adrenal metastases. This case demonstrates that select patients with adrenal oligometastases, can achieve long-term remission and even cure following SABR.
