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

Glioblastoma occurs rarely in pediatric patients (0.6-7.9% of all glioblastomas). Symptom duration is about 3-5 months prior to diagnosis with a dismal prognosis (median survival of 50 weeks). The authors describe two pediatric age patients with histopathologically confirmed glioblastoma multiforme whose lesions appeared within just 1 week of normal computed tomography scan and magnetic resonance imaging. Both patients had long-term survival (one of them 6 years and the other 3 years and 7 months) following tumor resection. The present report serially illustrates the very rapid development of glioblastoma in childhood and emphasizes the importance of serial neuroimaging as well as paying attention to sudden onset headaches in pediatric patients with inconclusive imaging findings.
