Review in Paediatric drugs, 2004. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 19 papers, 1 of them a synthesis that pooled it.

1 · What the graph read from it

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.

2 · The registry

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

Neuroblastoma is the most common extra-cranial solid tumor in children and has a heterogeneous clinical presentation and course. Clinical and biologic features of this disease have been used to develop risk-based therapy. Patients with low-risk disease can be treated with surgery alone. Patients with intermediate-risk features have an excellent prognosis after treatment with surgery and a relatively short course of standard dose chemotherapy. Unfortunately, most children with neuroblastoma present with advanced disease. More than 60% of patients with high-risk features will succumb to their disease despite intensive therapy including a myeloablative consolidation. Research efforts to understand the biologic basis of neuroblastoma and to identify new, more effective therapies are essential to improve the outcome for these children.
