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

Gliosarcoma is a rare central nervous system (CNS) malignancy. It is characterized by classical biphasic histological pattern with both glial and sarcomatous components, often seen in fifth and sixth decade of life. They are generally located in the supratentorial region. Due to its rarity, exact treatment recommendations are not available in literature. Since it is considered as a variant of glioblastoma multiforme (GBM), it is treated with surgery followed by adjuvant radiotherapy and temozolomide-based chemotherapy. We present a series of four cases of this rare malignancy that were treated at our institute.
