Differential Distribution of Brain Metastases from Non-Small Cell Lung Cancer Based on Mutation Status.
Article in Brain sciences, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 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
Non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) has a high rate of brain metastasis. The purpose of this study was to assess the differential distribution of brain metastases from primary NSCLC based on mutation status. Brain MRI scans of patients with brain metastases from primary NSCLC were retrospectively analyzed. Brain metastatic tumors were grouped according to mutation status of their primary NSCLC and the neuroimaging features of these brain metastases were analyzed. A total of 110 patients with 1386 brain metastases from primary NSCLC were included in this study. Gray matter density at the tumor center peaked at ~0.6 for all mutations. The median depths of tumors were 7.9 mm, 8.7 mm and 9.1 mm for EGFR, ALK and KRAS mutation groups, respectively (
