Chordoma of the Clivus with Metastasis to Femur.
Article in Asian journal of neurosurgery, 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
Chordomas are aggressive and invasive tumors that are notoriously famous for their recurrence and metastasis. They present with diverse manifestations, usually with lower cranial nerve involvement. Here, we present the first reported case of chondroid chordoma with femur metastasis. A 71-year-old lady presented to us with a headache and diplopia. MRI of the brain revealed an enhanced broad and destructive mass in the infrasellar region with complete destruction of the clivus, right cavernous sinus. She underwent multiple surgeries along with gamma knife and proton therapy. The patient later presented with a trochanteric fracture and needed a hip replacement. Biopsy curettage of the femur lesion revealed a chondroid chordoma of the femur. The patient died later of a chest infection. Multimodality treatment is required in chordoma management, including surgery, gamma knife, and proton therapy. A firm discerning eye is required in the elderly toward metastatic spread to the femur in cases presenting with fractures of long bones.
