Non-small cell lung cancer with multiple brain metastases remains relapse-free for more than 13 years: 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
Brain metastasis (BM) in patients with non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) is usually associated with a poor prognosis. A 55-year-old Japanese man visited Tokyo Dental College Ichikawa General Hospital with complaints of motor aphasia and fatigue. Enhanced magnetic resonance imaging of the brain revealed multiple tumors. The patient's medical history included lung cancer surgery performed at another hospital 3 months prior to his visit to our hospital. Total resection of the left frontal tumor revealed BM from lung adenocarcinoma. Stereotactic radiosurgery (SRS) was performed for the remaining three BMs. At 9 months after SRS, another new BM was discovered, and SRS was again performed. More than 13 years have elapsed since the last SRS was performed, and the patient has remained relapse-free. To the best of our knowledge, this is the first case report describing a patient with NSCLC with multiple BMs who has remained relapse-free for >13 years with no neurological dysfunction, including cognitive deficit.
