Solitary Calvarial Metastasis As the First Presentation of Urothelial Bladder Cancer.
Article in Cureus, 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
The most common sites of metastasis from urothelial carcinoma of the bladder include the lymph nodes, bones, lungs, liver, and peritoneum. Bladder carcinoma metastases of the head are uncommon. In the English literature, only a few cases of bladder carcinoma metastasis to the skull base have been reported, and no cases of metastasis to the calvaria have been reported previously. We present the first case of calvarial metastasis from bladder carcinoma that preceded the diagnosis of the primary tumor. Bladder calvarial metastasis as the first evidence of a primary tumor is a rare event and a sign of an advanced stage of the disease. Therefore, adequate staging is essential to ensure appropriate treatment. Surgical treatment of calvarial injuries is usually secure.
