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

Diffuse intrinsic pontine glioma (DIPG) is one of the deadliest pediatric central nervous system cancers in spite of treatment with radiation therapy, the current standard of care. The outcome of affected children remains dismal despite multiple clinical trials that investigated radiation therapy combined with chemotherapy. Recently, multiple genome-wide studies unveiled the distinct molecular characteristics of DIPGs and preclinical models of DIPG were developed to mimic the human disease. Both of these accomplishments have generated tremendous progress in the research of new therapies for children with DIPG. Here we review some of these promising new strategies.
