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

backgroundIn this study, we reported seven cases of pediatric intracranial clear cell meningiomas (CCMs) in our institution and reviewed the relevant literature to investigate the clinicopathological characteristics, treatment options, and prognosis of these rare tumors.

methodsFrom January 2005 to June 2016, we retrospectively reviewed seven pediatric intracranial CCMs in terms of their clinical data, preoperative MRI features, and prognosis. Moreover, a critical review of the English language literature was also conducted.

resultsThe patients consisted of two males and five females with a median age of 10.5 years (range 6-15 years) at initial surgery. Petroclival and cerebellopontine angle area was the most common location site (5/7). Accordingly, the most common initial manifestation was hearing loss (3/7), and the mean interval from onset of symptoms to admission was 6.8 months (1.5-24 months). Gross total resection was achieved in five patients. Of the six tumors with immunohistochemical records, MIB-1 labeling index varied from 3 to 20 % (mean 8.1 %). During the follow-up period (mean 76.9 months, range 16-180 months), four patients had experienced tumor recurrences and three patients died due to recurrences.

conclusionsPediatric intracranial CCMs have a tendency to recur. There is a significant relationship between MIB-1 labeling index and recurrence. Gross total resection is recommended; if not available, adjuvant radiotherapy should be used to reduce the recurrent rate. In addition, postoperative MRI follow-up should be monitored at an interval time after resection.
