Esthesioneuroblastoma with recurrent dural metastases: Long-term multimodality treatment and considerations.
Article in Surgical neurology international, 2021. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper.
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
backgroundEsthesioneuroblastoma (ENB) is a rare malignant disease and treatment protocols have not been standardized, varying widely by disease course and institutional practices. Management typically includes wide local excision through open or endoscopic resection, followed by radiotherapy, chemotherapy, and stereotactic radiosurgery. Tumor control can differ on a case-by-case basis. Herein, the complex management of a rare case of recurrent disease with multiple dural metastases is presented. CASE DESCRIPTION: A 60-year-old patient was diagnosed with ENB after presenting with anosmia and epistaxis. The patient underwent combined endonasal and transfrontal sinus craniofacial resection, followed by proton beam radiation therapy and chemotherapy. Subsequently, he developed a total of 25 dural metastases that were controlled with repeated Gamma Knife Radiosurgery (GKRS). In spite of post-treatment course that was complicated by radiation necrosis and local vasculopathy, the patient made significant recovery to functional baseline.
conclusionThe management of ENB entails multimodality and multidisciplinary care, which can help patients obtain disease control and long-term survival. Recurrent ENB dural metastases can behave as oligometastatic disease manageable with aggressive focal GKRS. As prognosis continues to improve, chronic treatment effects of radiation in such cases should be taken into consideration.
