A Case of a Large Brain Metastasis: Time for Multidisciplinary Consultation.
Article in Cureus, 2024. 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
Patients with complex diseases are mostly treated in a multidisciplinary setting. The impact of multidisciplinary care cannot be emphasized enough as it has the potential to significantly increase survival and, in some cases, help avoid a risky treatment approach. The aim of this case illustration is to emphasize the importance of multidisciplinary treatment and learn from the different approaches that can be made while treating such patients. This case describes the clinical course of a 40-year-old female patient with metastatic non-small cell lung carcinoma (NSCLC), TNM classification cT3N3M1c. Although she had clinical and radiological signs of brain herniation, a risky neurosurgical intervention was prevented due to an extensive multidisciplinary approach. Moreover, the important role of multidisciplinary consultation, imaging, and tumor markers in identifying pseudoprogression in the increasingly complex treatment of metastatic NSCLC is also demonstrated. In conclusion, a multidisciplinary approach is a crucial step in the growing complex treatment strategies for patients with brain metastases of NSCLC.
