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

purpose of reviewTo review the recent advances in understanding how primary brain tumors affect vision in children. RECENT

findingsChildren with primary brain tumors may have vision loss due to involvement of their afferent visual pathways or from papilledema. These vision deficits may go unrecognized until later in life, years after treatment of the primary lesion. Strabismus and cranial nerve palsies may occur as a result of brain tumors. Ophthalmologists can monitor and treat young children at risk for vision loss from amblyopia as a result of effects from their underlying lesion. Advances in imaging techniques have made it possible to quantify damage to the visual pathways with objective tests. SUMMARY: Systematic referrals for evaluation by an ophthalmologist should occur early in the course of treatment of primary brain tumors as these evaluations may improve visual outcomes and quality of life.
