Long-Term Outcomes after Multimodal Treatment for Clival Chordoma: Efficacy of the Endonasal Transclival Approach with Early Adjuvant Radiation Therapy.
Article in Journal of clinical medicine, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 4 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
This study investigates the long-term outcomes of clival chordoma patients treated with the endonasal transclival approach (ETCA) and early adjuvant radiation therapy. A retrospective review of 17 patients (2002-2013) showed a 10-year progression-free survival (PFS) rate of 67.4%, with the ETCA group showing fewer progressions and cranial neuropathies than those treated with combined approaches. The ETCA, a minimally invasive technique, provided a similar extent of resection compared to conventional skull-base approaches and enabled safe delivery of high-dose adjuvant radiotherapy. The findings suggest that ETCA is an effective treatment for centrally located clival chordomas.
