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

Meningioma arises from the arachnoid cap cells of the cerebrum. Intraparenchymal meningiomas or meningiomas without dural attachment are rare. We report a case of 40-year-old male who presented with a history of headache, dizziness and gradual loss of vision since one year. Clinicoradiological diagnosis of a high grade glioma was considered. Tumour was excised and haematoxylin and eosin stained sections revealed a tumour comprised predominantly of variable sized blood vessels showing hyalinization in a background of plump spindle cells with oval vesicular nuclei. In view of these features angiomatous meningioma was suspected. However, to confirm the diagnosis, a panel of immunohistochemical markers including vimentin, EMA and GFAP was done and a final diagnosis of angiomatous meningioma was offered. Angiomatous meningioma is a rare variant of meningioma and even much rarer in the intraparenchymal location. Angiomatous meningioma should be considered in the differential diagnosis of highly vascular intraparenchymal brain tumours.
