Effective Systemic Treatment of Choroidal Metastases NSCLC With Surgery After Crizotinib: A Case Report.
Article in Frontiers in oncology, 2022. 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
Choroidal metastasis as an initial presenting feature of lung cancer with EML4-ALK translocation is exceedingly rare and greatly impacts patient quality of life (QOL). There are no recommended treatments for such patients, and palliative care remains limited. It is unclear whether surgical resection of primary pulmonary lesions, systemic antitumor therapy, targeted therapy, or localized ocular therapy are effective in treating choroidal metastases in EML4-ALK rearranged oligometastatic non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC). Here, we present the case of choroidal metastases secondary to lung cancer and EML4-ALK translocation in a 57-year-old woman who firstly underwent resection of lung lesions followed by oral administration of crizotinib without local treatment or systemic chemotherapy. Since then she had a rapid and complete response to crizotinib with 27 months of progression-free survival.
