Factors influencing quality of life in adult patients with primary brain tumors.
Review in Neuro-oncology, 2012. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 18 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
We performed a literature review with respect to factors influencing health-related quality of life (QOL) in adults with primary brain tumors. A comprehensive, peer-reviewed literature search was performed including studies examining QOL in adults with high-grade gliomas and low-grade gliomas and in routine neuro-oncology practice. The interpretation and implication of QOL domain scores may be different in high-grade, low-grade, and benign brain tumors. Several patient-related, treatment-related, and sociocultural factors influence QOL scores. Pretreatment baseline QOL domain scores have been shown to be a predictive parameter for survival function. Implementation of QOL scores in routine clinical practice is underused. QOL is an important outcome measure in the treatment of patients with brain tumors and should be incorporated as a surrogate end point along with traditional end points, such as disease-free and overall survival in most current trials.
