Postoperative Radiotherapy in Spinal Rosai-Dorfman Disease: A Case Report and Literature Review.
Article in Case reports in oncology. 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
Introduction: Rosai-Dorfman disease (RDD) is a rare non-Langerhans cell histiocytosis with no well-established treatment approaches. Surgery is typically indicated for symptomatic patients, but adjuvant treatment to reduce recurrence is infrequently addressed in the literature. Case Presentation: Herein, we describe the case of a 77-year-old woman with a neurological deficit and an infiltrative epidural soft tissue mass at the T3 to T9 levels, as revealed by magnetic resonance imaging (MRI). Following complete tumor resection, pathological examination confirmed spinal RDD. The patient subsequently received postoperative radiotherapy with a dose of 30 Gy in 15 fractions 4 weeks later. At the 18-month postoperative follow-up, the patient was clinically improved and her MRI at 1 year showed no recurrence. Conclusions: Postoperative radiotherapy in spinal RDD remains controversial due to insufficient clinical evidence. Nevertheless, few case reports did not show treatment-related complications.
