Medulloblastoma in a child with Duchenne muscular dystrophy.
Article in Child's nervous system : ChNS : official journal of the International Society for Pediatric Neurosurgery, 2007. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 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
MATERIALS AND
methodsA 7-year-old boy diagnosed with Duchenne muscular dystrophy (DMD) presented with clinical features of raised intracranial tension. A CT scan revealed an enhancing vermian mass extending on to the fourth ventricle, which was excised and reported to be medulloblastoma. The patient was treated with craniospinal radiotherapy but progressed after 6 months. DISCUSSION: Neoplasms associated with DMD are rare and the present case may well be the first one with medulloblastoma. Interestingly, all neoplasms associated with DMD reported so far have been round cell tumors, which may lead to insights into their possible molecular associations.
