Postoperative solitary liver metastasis from esophageal squamous cell carcinoma achieving a clinical complete response to chemotherapy with cisplatin and 5-fluorouracil followed by stereotactic body radiotherapy: A case report.

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
Treatment strategies for distant organ metastasis have changed markedly since the concept of oligometastasis was introduced. The perception that distant organ metastasis is a systemic disease and not eligible for local therapy is now a thing of the past. Therefore, the present report details a case of postoperative solitary liver metastasis from esophageal squamous cell carcinoma (ESCC), which achieved a clinical complete response to chemotherapy with cisplatin and 5-fluorouracil (5-FU) followed by stereotactic body radiotherapy (SBRT). A 76-year-old male patient underwent esophagectomy for lower thoracic ESCC. At 7 months after surgery, abdominal CT revealed a solitary hypovascular mass, 28 mm in size, in segment 7 of the liver. After three courses of chemotherapy with cisplatin and 5-FU, abdominal CT revealed that the liver mass had shrunk to 7 mm in size. SBRT was then administered with a 6 MV X-ray beam generated by a linear accelerator. A total dose of 50 Gy was given in 5 fractions of 10 Gy to the liver mass. At 1 month after SBRT, abdominal CT revealed that the liver mass had disappeared. The patient received no further adjuvant chemotherapy and had no recurrence at 18 months after diagnosis of liver metastasis and 13 months after SBRT.
