Systemic Treatment for Brain Metastasis and Leptomeningeal Disease in Breast Cancer Patients.
Review in Current oncology reports, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 4 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
purpose of reviewBreast cancer with brain metastasis (BCBM) and leptomeningeal disease (LMD) are important clinical problems. Traditionally, patients with metastases to the brain and meninges were excluded from clinical trials; hence, robust, evidence-based treatment recommendations are lacking. In this review, we outline the systemic treatment options and ongoing clinical trials. RECENT
findingsSeveral recent studies have added to the systemic treatment options available. Antibody-drug conjugates have changed the therapeutic landscape. Combination treatment modalities that target multiple mechanisms including disruption of the blood brain barrier are increasingly being studied. Breast cancer with brain metastases and LMD is a heterogenous disease. While the prognosis remains grim, with more systemic treatment options, patients with BCBM are now living longer. Many ongoing clinical trials hold promise to further improve outcomes.
