Epileptic seizure in primary intracranial sarcoma: a case report and literature review.

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
purposeThe aim of this study is to describe epileptic seizures in patients with primary intracranial sarcomas.
methodsWe report a 17-year-old girl diagnosed with primary high-grade intracranial sarcoma with initial clinical manifestation of nonconvulsive status epilepticus. Literature reports between 2000 and 2014, relevant to primary intracranial sarcomas in children, were reviewed. The clinical presentations and neurological outcomes were analyzed.
resultsEleven of 29cases (38 %), 8 males and 3 females, who exhibited epileptic seizures as one of the initial symptoms and diagnosed with primary intracranial sarcomas were collected. The median age of disease onset was 5 years. The two most common seizure types were generalized seizures (45 %) and status epilepticus (36 %). Nine of 11 patients (82 %) had tumor growth involving the frontal lobe. Nine cases had the median duration of follow-up 1.7 years, of which 6 cases showed tumor recurrence and 3 cases died during the period of follow-up.
conclusionsEpileptic seizures as one of the clinical manifestations are uncommon. The two most common seizure types were generalized seizures and status epilepticus. The most frequent location of primary intracranial sarcoma-related seizures was the frontal lobe. The clinical outcome varied.
