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

This review covers the medical options for malignant gliomas based on the results of recent clinical trials and updated information on molecular markers of prognostic and predictive value. In addition to alkylating agents, the antiangiogenic drug bevacizumab is increasingly used, particularly in cases of recurrence. Supportive care, including antiedema agents, antiepileptic drugs and anticoagulants, represent complementary treatment approaches of the utmost clinical importance.
