Primary intracranial leiomyosarcoma presenting with frontal bone mass: a case report.
Article in Radiation oncology journal, 2020. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 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
Primary intracranial mesenchymal neoplasms are rare tumors. These tumors are usually metastatic disease from other primary sites. We presented a 31-year-old man with a 6-month history of gradually enlarging frontal mass and positional headache. There was no other symptom demonstrating other organs' involvement. The patient underwent an uncomplicated craniotomy with clear surgical margins. The pathology review and the immunohistochemistry staining confirmed leiomyosarcoma grade II. We prescribed radiation therapy with tumor dose of 60 Gy in 30 fractions with conformal treatment planning to the tumor bed. As this disease has a high potency for metastasis, we advised four courses of single agent doxorubicin chemotherapy 75 mg/m2 every 4 weeks starting one month after the end of radiotherapy. In the last follow-up visit 34 months later, the patient was disease free in physical exam and imaging findings.
