Peptide Receptor Radionuclide Therapy of Pulmonary Neuroendocrine Neoplasms: a Single-Centre Experience.
Article in Nuclear medicine and molecular imaging, 2021. 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
purposePeptide receptor radionuclide therapy represents a therapeutic option for neuroendocrine neoplasms; to date, experiences with peptide receptor radionuclide therapy of pulmonary neuroendocrine neoplasms are still limited. We report our experience with peptide receptor radionuclide therapy of pulmonary neuroendocrine neoplasm patients. MATERIALS AND
methodsClinical records of 14 pulmonary neuroendocrine neoplasm patients (7 female and 7 male) who received at least 2 cycles of peptide receptor radionuclide therapy were retrospectively reviewed. Tumoural uptake of somatostatin analogues at pre-treatment imaging was graded as 2 to 3 in all patients. RECIST criteria were used to evaluate response.
resultsNo treated patient had significant toxicity. Partial response was found in 3 (21.4%) patients, stable disease in 7 (50%), and progressive disease in 4 (28.6%). A statistically significant difference between disease state at enrolment and after peptide receptor radionuclide therapy was found.
conclusionsOur data furtherly support peptide receptor radionuclide therapy as a safe and effective treatment of patients affected by pulmonary neuroendocrine neoplasms allowing disease control in about 71% of patients without showing significant toxicity. Other studies are needed to confirm our results.
