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
We read the article entitled "Patterns of brain metastasis immediately before prophylactic cranial irradiation (PCI): implications for PCI optimization in limited-stage small cell lung cancer" with great interest. In that study, the author reported about the importance of PCI timing in limited stage small cell lung cancer (LS-SCLC) in the era of MRI surveillance. In addition, the authors raise the issue of neurotoxicity of PCI. In this letter, we aimed to clarify the value of PCI in LS-SCLC and present ongoing trials regarding PCI and MRI surveillance in SCLC. As a result, we see the need for the development of a prediction tool to estimate the risk of intracranial relapse in LS-SCLC after chemoradiotherapy in order to support shared decision making through improved guidance.
