Cerebral hemispheric low-grade glial tumors in children: preoperative anatomic assessment with MRI and DTI.
Review in Child's nervous system : ChNS : official journal of the International Society for Pediatric Neurosurgery, 2016. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 papers.
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 aims of this study are to analyze how the nature and the behavior of low-grade glial tumors (LGGT) in children may correlate with the anatomy of the cerebral hemispheres and to evaluate the consequent impact of diffusion tensor imaging (DTI) techniques in the presurgical assessment.
methodsThis is a combined review of a series of 155 cases of LGGT and of the recent literature on the subject.
resultsThe cases retrieved from our data bank were divided in central hemispheric tumors (basal ganglia and thalami) (36 cases), glioneuronal cortical-based tumors (49 cases), and glial tumors of the cerebral mantle (70 cases). A close correlation was found in the thalamus between the primary location of the tumor (juxta-ventricular, inferior, lateral, bilateral) and its extension (ventricular lumen, midbrain and mesial temporal, globus pallidus, respectively) which may relate to the connectivity. Among the glioneuronal tumors, most gangliogliomas were located in the temporal lobe and especially in the mesial temporal structures. In addition, the morphologic feature of the ganglioglioma was different there from the neocortical areas. As a complementary approach, DTI data may assist in evaluating the structure and the extension of the LGGT, in addition to planning the surgical strategy.
conclusionsIn the cerebral hemispheres like in the rest of the central nervous system, there is some degree of correlation between the anatomy and the nature, appearance, and behavior of the LGGT in children.
