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

Extraventricular neurocytomas (EVNs) are rare neuronal tumors included in the definition of neoplasms in the 2007 World Health Organization classification of tumors of the central nervous system. Although a small case series of EVNs in adults has been previously reported, EVNs in pediatric populations are extremely rare. The current case report presents the clinicopathological features of an EVN in a 2-year-old female who presented with nausea and vomiting that had lasted for five days. In addition, an analysis of the imaging features, histology, treatment and prognosis of these reported rare lesions is presented. Immunohistochemically, EVNs are characterized by the robust expression of synaptophysin, but with a lack of oligodendrocyte transcription factor 2, isocitrate dehydrogenase enzyme isoform 1 (IDH1) R132/IDH2 R172 mutations and p53 immunoexpression. The treatment for EVNs in pediatric and adult populations is gross total resection, with post-operative radiation reserved for subtotal resection or recurrent disease. In addition, drop metastasis must be carefully avoided.
