FDG PET/CT reveals bone marrow oligometastasis in laryngeal squamous carcinoma: a case report with favorable outcome.
Article in BJR case reports, 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
Laryngeal carcinoma is the most common head and neck cancer. The vast majority of laryngeal carcinomas are of squamous-cell histologic type. Metastasis of laryngeal cancer typically occurs within the cervical lymph nodes and seldom in other regions. Although a small percentage of patients experience distant metastases, bone marrow metastasis from laryngeal cancer is among the least common metastatic sites. Previous literature has suggested that bone marrow carcinomatosis is aggressive and has a poor outcome, particularly in patients with supraglottic tumors. Ante-mortem diagnosis of this metastatic pattern has been limited. To our knowledge, this case report highlights the first documented occurrence wherein the utilization of 18-fluorine fludeoxyglucose positron emission tomography/CT imaging played a pivotal role in the early detection of bone marrow metastasis in a patient diagnosed with transglottic laryngeal cancer. A solitary metastatic distant bone marrow lesion was identified early during follow-up. As a consequence, the patient exhibited a remarkable and unforeseen favorable clinical outcome.
