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

Gliomas are one of the most common types of primary brain tumors and have remained particularly challenging to treat. This review illustrates a multidisciplinary approach to the treatment of glioma and glioblastoma. We will review current advances in surgical approaches, novel imaging techniques, advanced molecular characterization of tumors and translational efforts for treatment. We will focus on current clinical trials as well as the pursuit of personalized or precision therapy. We will also comment on the importance of both quality of life of our patients and their care givers.
