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

Neuroblastoma, one of the most common extracranial solid malignancies in children, is often localized in the adrenal glands (49%). The staging system for prognostic purpose was one of the first points of disagreement, which led to the International Neuroblastoma Staging System (INSS) of 1986, revised in 1989, which relies on surgical staging. The limit of this classification was the different surgical resection, also done at interval times from diagnosis. To overcome this difficulty, a new staging system was made based on preoperative imaging by the International Neuroblastoma Risk Group (INRG) in 2009. This new staging system uses 20 Image-Defined Risk Factors (IDRFs) across multiple organ systems. The scope of this IDRFs is to predict surgical outcomes and, in addition with clinical data, to provide risk stratification. The INRG Staging System (INRGSS) relies on Imaging-Defined Risk Factors (IDRFs) that are determined before surgery or other therapy. With the application of the INRGSS the radiologist's role in staging children with neuroblastoma increased. The review provides an overview of the INRGSS and the IDRFs in adrenal neuroblastoma.
