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

backgroundMethylation of the O MATERIALS AND

methodsPyrosequencing analysis was used to determine the MGMT promoter methylation status in 61 meningiomas, to clarify whether it might have a predictive role.

resultsOnly two tumors (3%) had a mean methylation frequency higher than the cut-off value of 10% for the four CpG sites examined.

conclusionThe methylation of the MGMT promoter is uncommon, or occurs at a low frequency in meningiomas. There is no convincing rationale to test such tumors for their MGMT methylation status in a clinical setting.
