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

background and purposeBoth IDH1 mutation and MGMT promoter methylation are associated with longer survival. We investigated the ability of imaging correlates to serve as noninvasive biomarkers for these molecularly defined GBM subtypes. MATERIALS AND

methodsMR imaging from 202 patients with GBM was retrospectively assessed for nonenhancing tumor and edema among other imaging features. IDH1 mutational and MGMT promoter methylation status were determined by DNA sequencing and methylation-specific PCR, respectively. Overall survival was determined by using a multivariate Cox model and the Kaplan-Meier method with a log rank test. A logistic regression model followed by ROC analysis was used to classify the IDH1 mutation and methylation status by using imaging features.

resultsMGMT promoter methylation and IDH1 mutation were associated with longer median survival. Edema levels stratified survival for methylated but not unmethylated tumors. Median survival for methylated tumors with little/no edema was 2476 days (95% CI, 795), compared with 586 days (95% CI, 507-654) for unmethylated tumors or tumors with edema. All IDH1 mutant tumors were nCET positive, and most (11/14, 79%) were located in the frontal lobe. Imaging features including larger tumor size and nCET could be used to determine IDH1 mutational status with 97.5% accuracy, but poorly predicted MGMT promoter methylation.

conclusionsImaging features are potentially predictive of IDH1 mutational status but were poorly correlated with MGMT promoter methylation. Edema stratifies survival in MGMT promoter methylated but not in unmethylated tumors; patients with methylated tumors with little or no edema have particularly long survival.
