1 · What the graph read from it

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.

2 · The registry

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 are the most frequent intracranial tumor entity and in most cases are a sign of advanced systemic cancer. Advances in neurosurgery, pathology, radiotherapy and oncology, especially with the introduction of immune and targeted systemic treatment, have significantly improved the prognosis for patients with brain metastases in recent years. Neurosurgical treatment plays a key role in symptom relief, reduction of the tumor burden and tissue acquisition for molecular analysis to enable patients to undergo postoperative radiotherapy and systemic therapy. The creation of an optimal patient-oriented treatment concept requires close interdisciplinary coordination and structured follow-up to make individualized and evidence-based treatment decisions.
