Rapid Recurrence of Giant Cell Tumour of C2 Vertebra After Long-Term Denosumab Following Surgical Resection.
Article in Cureus, 2022. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
A 25-year-old man presented with symptoms of cervical myelopathy for 10 days. Imaging revealed an expansile, lytic lesion involving the C2 vertebra completely and compressing the spinal cord, suggestive of giant cell tumor (GCT). Tumor resection and posterior stabilization from C1-C4 were done. Histopathology confirmed the diagnosis of GCT. The patient was kept on adjuvant Denosumab (D-ab) for two years with no signs of recurrence. However, discontinuation of D-ab therapy led to recurrence of the tumor within three months, which was managed with repeated surgical resection and anterior instrumentation followed by radiotherapy. To the best of our knowledge, this is the first reported case of GCT involving the upper cervical spine with rapid recurrence following the stoppage of D-ab therapy.
