Rare Pituitary Metastasis from Adenocarcinoma of Right Lung in
Article in Indian journal of nuclear medicine : IJNM : the official journal of the Society of Nuclear Medicine, India. 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
Lung cancer is the leading cause of cancer and cancer-related deaths, and India ranks the fourth highest country. Lung cancer is a highly aggressive malignancy with a tendency for rapid progression, making early detection and prompt treatment essential for improving patient outcomes. Lung cancer can spread locally into surrounding tissue as well as travel through lymphatics to other parts of the body, most often to bone, brain, liver, and adrenal glands. Metastasis to pituitary and pineal glands is extremely rare. The differential diagnosis for pituitary metastasis could be pituitary adenoma where lesion usually lies at the anterior aspect of pituitary fossa, whereas metastasis is seen at the posterior aspect. There is a paucity of published literature, with only a few cases reported of pituitary and pineal gland metastasis. Hence, to add to the literature, we present a case of pituitary metastasis in an older woman with lung cancer.
