Radiological image features of the atypical teratoid/rhabdoid tumor in adults: a systematic review.
Synthesis in Clinical neuroradiology, 2015. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 14 papers, 1 of them a synthesis that pooled 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.
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
purposeAtypical teratoid/rhabdoid tumor (AT/RT) occurs in children less than 3 years old, and has a very poor prognosis. AT/RT seldom occurs in adult. We have experienced four cases of AT/RT at our institute. The purpose of this study is to evaluate the radiological image findings of adult-onset AT/RT and to conduct a systematic review.
methodsImage findings of four AT/RTs in our institute were retrospectively evaluated by an experienced neuroradiologist. If the images were unavailable, image findings were evaluated from the former image interpretation report. We assembled papers of adult-onset AT/RT (n = 38) and evaluated the image findings.
resultsAT/RT occurs in a variety of sites (spinal region, pineal region, suprasellar region, jugular foramen, and so on). High density on computed tomography (CT) was seen in 10 of 11 cases; mixed intensity in T2-weighted image was seen in 13 of 18 cases; and high intensity on diffusion-weighted image (DWI) was seen in 3 of 3 cases. Contrast enhancement was observed in all cases in which images were available.
conclusionsWe have experienced four adult-onset AT/RT cases at our institute and have evaluated image findings through systematic review. The image findings of high density on CT, high intensity on DWI, with low apparent diffusion coefficient, and a heterogenous component should lead to an inclusion of AT/RT in the differential diagnosis of a tumor; these findings may be able to suggest AT/RT; however, they cannot make the diagnosis.
