Solitary Splenic Metastasis from Gastric Adenocarcinoma Treated with Stereotactic Body Radiotherapy using Deep Inspiratory Breath Hold.
Article in Indian journal of palliative care. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper.
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
Splenic metastases are rarely caused by non-hematologic malignancies, and only 6.9% of these metastases have a gastric origin. Stomach cancer splenic metastases are rare and often asymptomatic. The conventional therapy of choice is splenectomy. However, few instances are documented where stereotactic body radiation (SBRT) was used to treat isolated splenic metastases from gastric cancer. We present a case of solitary splenic metastasis from gastric adenocarcinoma treated with SBRT using deep inspiratory breath hold (DIBH). A woman in her fifties, previously treated with subtotal gastrectomy and adjuvant chemotherapy for pT4aN0M0 gastric cancer, presented with a positron emission tomography-avid solitary splenic lesion 2 years later. Following multidisciplinary discussion, SBRT with DIBH (50 Gray/5 fractions) was delivered along with daily cone beam computed tomography. The patient tolerated treatment well, with stable disease and no haematological toxicity. This case highlights SBRT as a non-invasive, feasible option for local control of isolated splenic metastasis from gastric carcinoma.
