Consortium for Intracranial Metastasis Academic Research (CIMARa): Global interdisciplinary collaborations to improve outcomes of patient with brain metastases.
Review in Neuro-oncology advances. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. An erratum has been issued. Cited by 5 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
Brain metastases (BrM) arising from solid tumors is an ever-increasing and often devastating clinical challenge impacting hundreds of thousands of patients annually worldwide. As systemic anticancer therapies, and thus survival, improve, the risk for central nervous system (CNS) recurrence has increased. Historically, patients with BrM were excluded from clinical trials; however, there has been a shift toward increasing inclusion over the past decade. To most effectively design the next generation of clinical trials for patients with BrM, a multidisciplinary team spanning local and systemic therapies is imperative. CIMARa (Consortium for Intracranial Metastasis Academic Research), formalized in June 2021, is an inclusive group of multidisciplinary clinical investigators, research scientists, and advocates who share the collective goal of improving outcomes for patients with BrM. CIMARa aims to improve outcomes through the development, coordination, and awareness of multi-institutional clinical trials testing novel therapeutic agents for this unique patient population alongside the translation of preclinical research to the clinical setting.
