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

Gliosarcoma (GS) is a malignant, uncommon variant of high-grade glioma comprised of infiltrative glial and atypical sarcomatous cells, identified in adult and pediatric populations. GS has been subcategorized into primary (de novo) and secondary tumors, with the latter typically arising in the setting of prior glioblastoma. Due to its rarity, the pathogenesis, epidemiology and optimal therapy of GS have been based on small retrospective cohort studies, with treatment presently utilizing regimens established for other high-grade gliomas, including combination of resection, radiotherapy and temozolomide-based chemotherapy. As more information is gathered about GS molecular profiles, novel treatment strategies may be developed to improve outcomes of GS patients. Here we summarize results of GS management with focus on the temozolomide era.
