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

The WHO Classification of Tumors of the Central Nervous System has become the worldwide standard for classifying and grading brain neoplasms. The most recent edition (WHO 2007) introduced a number of significant changes that include both additions and redefinitions or clarifications of existing entities. Eight new neoplasms and 4 new variants were introduced. This article reviews these entities, summarizing both their histology and imaging appearance. Now with more than 3 years of clinical experience following publication of the newest revision, we also ask, "What can the neuroradiologist really say?" Are there imaging findings that could suggest the preoperative diagnosis of a new tumor entity or variant?
