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

Pediatric spinal oligodendrogliomas are rare and aggressive tumors. They do not share the same molecular features of adult oligodendroglioma, and no previous reports have examined the molecular features of pediatric spinal oligodendroglioma. We present the case of a child with a recurrent spinal anaplastic oligodendroglioma. We performed whole exome (paired tumor and germline DNA) and transcriptome (tumor RNA) sequencing, which revealed somatic mutations in NF1 and FGFR1. These data allowed us to explore potential personalized therapies for this patient and expose molecular drivers that may be involved in similar cases.
