Review in Therapeutic advances in neurological disorders, 2018. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 83 papers, 1 of them a synthesis that pooled it.

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

The diagnosis of a glioblastoma is mainly made on the basis of their microscopic appearance with the additional determination of epigenetic as well as mutational analyses as deemed appropriate and taken into account in different centers. How far the recent discovery of tumor networks will stimulate novel treatments is a subject of intensive research. A tissue diagnosis is the mainstay. Regardless of age, patients should undergo a maximal safe resection. Magnetic resonance imaging is the surrogate parameter of choice for follow up. Patients should receive chemoradiotherapy with temozolomide with the radiation schedule adapted to performance status, age and tumor location. The use of temozolomide may be reconsidered according to methylguanine DNA methyltransferase
