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

Meningiomas are found incidentally or because of characteristic but non-specific symptoms. In Germany approximately 1,000 new diseases in the area of the anterior visual pathways are expected per year. Around one quarter of all incidentally diagnosed meningiomas eventually need treatment. The typical patient is a female around the age of 50 years as more than 80 % of the patients are women. The typical presenting symptom is visual acuity loss followed by diplopia, visual field defects and proptosis are experienced in about 10 %. In primary optic nerve meningiomas the optic disc is swollen or atrophic, rarely normal and in meningiomas invading the optic nerve from another origin the optic disc is either normal or atrophic and rarely swollen.
