Stereotactic radiosurgery as a successful method to control meningeal metastatic adenoid cystic carcinoma of the lacrimal gland: A case report.
Article in Molecular and clinical oncology, 2022. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 papers, 1 of them a synthesis that pooled it.
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
Adenoid cystic carcinoma (ACC) of the lacrimal gland is a rare tumor. In addition, considering the lack of data on large groups of patients there is no standard of care to treat patients with multiple meningeal metastases of ACC. A two-year analysis of the course of the disease in a patient with synchronous oligometastatic ACC of the lacrimal gland that was treated with stereotactic radiosurgery (SRS) is presented. The aim of the present case report was to evaluate the effect of SRS in the treatment of a patient with ACC. Preliminary results confirmed that this method was highly effective in this patient. The patient is currently living with a good quality of life, normal vision and with no evidence of disease or complications. SRS exhibited reliable local tumor control and insignificant radiation-related complications, rendering it an encouraging treatment option for patients with recurrent or metastatic ACC.
