The importance of multidisciplinary care for spine metastases: initial tumor management.
Review in Neuro-oncology practice, 2020. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 13 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
Spine metastases are very common in cancer patients often requiring urgent assessment and the initiation of therapy. Treatment paradigms have changed exponentially over the past decade with the evolution and integration of stereotactic body radiotherapy, minimally invasive spine techniques, and systemic options including biologics and checkpoint inhibitors. These advances necessitate multidisciplinary assessments and interventions to optimize outcomes. The NOMS framework provides a mechanism for all practitioners to evaluate the 4 sentinel assessments required to make decisions in patients with spine metastases: Neurologic, Oncologic, Mechanical Stability, and Systemic disease. The NOMS framework is continuously updated with the integration of newer technologies and evidence-based medicine as they become available. This paper presents the current iteration of NOMS with a focus on the role of medical and neuro-oncologists in the assessment and treatment of metastatic spine tumors.
