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

Diffuse invasion of the brain, an intrinsic property of gliomas, renders these tumours incurable, and is a principal determinant of their spatial and temporal growth. Knowledge of the invasive potential of gliomas is highly desired in order to understand their behaviour in vivo. Comprehensive ex vivo invasion studies including tumours of different histological types and grades are however lacking, mostly because reliable physiological invasion assays have been difficult to establish. Using an organotypic rodent brain slice assay, we evaluated the invasiveness of 42 grade II-IV glioma biopsy specimens, and correlated it with the histological phenotype, the absence or presence of deletions on chromosomes 1p and 19q assessed by fluorescent in situ hybridisation, and proliferation and apoptosis indices assessed by immunocytochemistry. Oligodendroglial tumours with 1p/19q loss were less invasive than astrocytic tumours of similar tumour grade. Correlation analysis of invasiveness cell proliferation and apoptosis further suggested that grade II-III oligodendroglial tumours with 1p/19q loss grow in situ as relatively circumscribed compact masses in contrast to the more infiltrative and more diffuse astrocytomas. Lower invasiveness may be an important characteristic of oligodendroglial tumours, adding to our understanding of their more indolent clinical evolution and responsiveness to therapy.
