Denosumab combined with microwave ablation excisional scraping for giant cell tumor of the thoracic spine: a case report and literature review.
Article in Frontiers in oncology, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
Denosumab has recently become an important part of the treatment regime for spinal giant cell tumors of the bone (GCTB). Its use has significantly reduced the risk of surgery and postoperative complications in patients with spinal GCTB. However, the use of denosumab has not yet been optimized to reap the maximum benefits. Here, we have reported the case of a patient who was treated with denosumab in combination with excision and scraping for GCTB of the T10 vertebrae, which achieved good tumor control and no recurrence at the 2-year postoperative follow-up. We have also reviewed the case in the light of relevant literature as well as presented our ideas and recommendations for the optimal use of denosumab.
