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

Glioblastoma is the most aggressive and most common malignant primary brain tumour in adults and has a high mortality and morbidity. Because local tumour control in glioblastoma patients is still elusive in the majority of patients, there is an urgent need for alternative treatment strategies. However, to implement changes to the existing clinical standard of care, research must be conducted to develop alternative treatment strategies. A novel approach in radiotherapy is the introduction of pre-clinical precision image-guided radiation research platforms. The aim of this review is to give a brief overview of the efforts that have been made in the field of radiation research using animal models of glioblastoma. Because MRI has become the reference imaging technique for treatment planning and assessment of therapeutic responses in glioblastoma patients, we will focus in this review on small animal radiotherapy combined with MRI.
