The potential risk factors for atypical and anaplastic meningiomas: clinical series of 1,239 cases.
Article in International journal of clinical and experimental medicine, 2014. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 14 papers.
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
backgroundDetermining factors that could accurately predict pathological features of meningiomas before histological diagnosis would help surgeons to proper balance the risk of operation and the resection grade. The aim of this study was to explore the potential risk factors for atypical (WHO Grade II) and anaplastic (WHO Grade III) meningiomas.
methodsRecords of 1,239 patients between January 2009 and January 2013 were included in this research. Furthermore, immunohistochemistry with Ki67 was analysed in 368 samples.
resultsThe Pearson's chi-square test showed an increased risk for male gender for atypical and anaplastic meningiomas (P < 0.001) and an increased risk for cerebral convexity for atypical and anaplastic meningiomas (P < 0.001). However, significant differences in the terms of falx/sagittal sinus and intraventricular were not found. Patients with a Ki67 index ≥ 5% were significantly more likely to have atypical and anaplastic meningiomas than those patients with a Ki67 index < 5% (P < 0.001). In addition, the percentage of patients with a Ki67 index ≥ 5% in cerebral convexity meningiomas was higher than in non-cerebral convexity location (P = 0.006).
conclusionsThe results indicate that male gender, cerebral convexity are significant risk factors for atypical and anaplastic meningiomas.
