Hepatic metastasis of pulmonary large cell neuroendocrine carcinoma: A case report and literature review.
Review in The Journal of international medical research, 2025. 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
Large cell neuroendocrine carcinoma of the lung is a rare and aggressive malignancy with a high propensity for metastasis. This carcinoma demonstrates a significantly higher propensity for hepatic metastasis compared with other non-small cell lung cancer subtypes, thereby exacerbating therapeutic complexity and worsening prognosis. A man in his early 60s was admitted to our institution with a hepatic space-occupying lesion. Hepatic segmentectomy was performed, and histopathological examination confirmed a neuroendocrine carcinoma. Following stabilization of vital signs, the patient underwent uniportal video-assisted thoracoscopic surgery for partial lobectomy of the right upper lung. Subsequent histopathological analysis confirmed the diagnosis of hepatic metastasis originating from pulmonary large cell neuroendocrine carcinoma. This case highlights that clinicians should maintain a high index of suspicion for large cell neuroendocrine carcinoma when encountering multifocal malignancies.
