Common molecular cytogenetic pathway in papillary tumors of the pineal region (PTPR).
Article in Brain pathology (Zurich, Switzerland), 2011. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 8 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
Primary papillary tumors of the central nervous system and particularly the pineal region are rare. Papillary tumor of the pineal region (PTPR) is a recently described neoplasm that has been formally recognized in the 2007 World Health Organization Classification of Tumors of the Nervous System. Because of their rarity, further pheno- and genotypical observations as well as therapeutic experience are necessary to differentiate PTPR from other primary or secondary papillary tumors of this region. We herein present three cases of PTPR characterized by local recurrence in two of them. Primary and recurrent tumors were analyzed by immunohistochemistry and comparative genomic hybridization (CGH). From our results clonal chromosomal aberrations can be postulated which seem to be a feasible tool to differentiate PTPRs from other primary or secondary papillary tumors of this region.
