Complete radiographic response after proton radiation therapy in the re-irradiation of a diffuse high-grade glioma: A case report.
Article in SAGE open medical case reports, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper.
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
High-grade gliomas (HGGs) are the most aggressive of brain tumors and are one of the most common primary intracranial malignancies. The poor prognosis after aggressive treatment of HGGs makes these gliomas a challenge to treat with curative intent. Proton radiation therapy is a recent radiation modality that is being explored for the treatment of HGGs. Proton radiation therapy provides improved sparing of critical normal structures while giving an ablative dose of radiation to the tumor, which can be performed more accurately than photon beam radiation therapy. We report a case of a diffuse HGG treated with proton radiotherapy and chemotherapy after previously being treated with photon irradiation. A complete radiographic response was seen on MRI imaging after proton irradiation.
