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

introductionOligodendrogliomatosis is a rarely reported entity in literature associated with poor prognosis in terms of length and quality of life. In this paper, we describe oligodendrogliomatosis in a 15-year-old male who initially presented with altered mental status due to diabetic ketoacidosis. CLINICAL PRESENTATION: He was refractory to temozolomide initially but demonstrated disease regression with radiotherapy (XRT). More recently, he has had disease recurrence, which was stabilized with temozolomide therapy for a period of time.

conclusionContrary to most reports in literature, our patient has had excellent quality of life since his initial diagnosis and continues to carry good prognosis. In addition to oligodendrogliomatosis, our patient also developed multiple intracranial cavernomas secondary to radiation therapy, which have remained stable and asymptomatic.
