Review in Radiologie (Heidelberg, Germany), 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 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
problemThere is a risk of developing secondary central nervous system (CNS) tumors after cranial radiation therapy. Meningiomas and pituitary tumors are also increasingly treated with radiation therapy, which means that the risk of secondary tumors from radiation in children and adults must be communicated.
methodsStudies in children show that radiation causes a 7- to 10-fold increase in subsequent CNS tumors with a cumulative incidence over 20 years ranging from 1.03 to 28.9. The latency period for the occurrence of secondary tumors ranged from 5.5 to 30 years, with gliomas developing after 5-10 years and meningiomas around 15 years after irradiation. The latency period for secondary CNS tumors in adults ranged from 5 to 34 years.
conclusionAfter radiation treatment, tumors can rarely occur as secondary sequelae, mostly meningiomas and gliomas, but also cavernomas. The treatment and long-term results of radiation-induced CNS tumors showed no worse results than primary CNS tumors over the course of time.
