Histopathological Analysis of Brain Tumours- A Seven Year Study from a Tertiary Care Centre in South India.
Article in Journal of clinical and diagnostic research : JCDR, 2017. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 7 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
introductionTumours of central nervous system constitute 1%-2% of tumours in adults. The incidence of brain tumours has been reported to be around 3.9 and 3.0/one lac/year in males and females respectively. A few studies are available from India which show a lower incidence of brain tumours compared to the developed countries. Not much is known about the epidemiology of brain tumours in the population from South India.
aimTo identify the age groups, gender distribution, topography and different histological types of brain tumours. MATERIALS AND
methodsA total of 510 cases of brain tumours were identified over a period of seven years which were included in the present study. We retrieved the slides of these cases and reviewed them. Immunohistochemistry in required cases were done. Age and gender distribution, clinical presentation, site of tumour and histopathologic patterns with grade were noted and the data was analysed with SPSS software version 17.0.
resultsOur analysis showed that most of the brain tumours occur between 40-60 years of age, with a male to female ratio of 0.9:1. Majority of cases involved dura and cerebral lobes except for the occipital lobe, and meningioma and glial tumours were the most common broad histological types. WHO grade IV tumours and metastasis were common in males compared to females.
conclusionThis study revealed the distribution of brain tumours in patients attending our institution. The results obtained were comparable with available worldwide data.
