Neuroblastoma stage IV-S.
Review in Medical oncology (Northwood, London, England), 1994. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 papers.
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
A review of stage IV-S neuroblastoma is provided. The possible uses of prognostic features to guide treatment options in this group of infants with neuroblastoma are suggested. The biologic basis for the spontaneous regression of widespread tumor involvement in some infants with stage IV-S neuroblastoma is discussed. The reasons that some infants with IV-S disease progress to a fatal outcome, while most undergo maturation or involution and eventual long term cure are suggested. The influence of such factors as age at diagnosis, clinical staging, and tumor biology on eventual outcome are covered. Biological variables and markers discussed include: genetic (cytogenetics (1p deletions), nuclear genomic content), molecular biologic (N-myc oncogene amplification, mdr-1, ras, and trk, gene expression), immunological (major histocompatibility antigen density, cellular and humoral immunity), and biochemical (creatine kinase isoenzyme profile, neuron specific enolase, ferritin, chromatograffin, lactic acid dehydrogenase and catecholamine levels).
