A successful case of an anaplastic meningioma treated with chemotherapy for soft tissue sarcomas.
Article in CNS oncology, 2016. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 5 papers, 1 of them a synthesis that pooled 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.
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
Malignant meningioma has a bad prognosis. Surgery and radiotherapy are the most effective therapeutic options, without an established role for chemotherapy. We report a case of 2-year-old male child with diagnosis of postoperative relapse of a malignant meningioma. Considering the rapid progression, the young age and the lack of effective therapeutic alternatives, the patient underwent multidisciplinary anticancer treatment with a protocol made for soft tissue sarcomas (EpSSG NRSSTS 2005 protocol), with positive outcome. This case represents a successful management of an anaplastic meningioma with a multimodal treatment, including chemotherapy, in a pediatric patient.
