Total En Bloc Spondylectomy in a Case of Solitary Metastatic Breast Carcinoma With Intact Neurology: A Case Report.
Article in Cureus, 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
The management of spinal metastasis varies from patient to patient, depending on the type of lesion, stage of the disease, extension into the spinal canal, associated fractures, and life expectancy. We present a case of solitary metastasis with intact neurology in a 48-year-old lady who underwent a radical mastectomy for T2 N3 M0 breast carcinoma 34 months ago. Total en bloc spondylectomy in a neurologically intact patient is a challenging one. In all posterior approaches, there is a high chance of postoperative neurodeficiency. In our case, a combined approach seems to be a much safer procedure with easy accessibility to remove the total D8 vertebra.
