A novel neuroimaging assessment of predictive risk factors associated with intraoperative massive hemorrhage in intracranial solid hemangioblastoma.

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.
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
backgroundA solid hemangioblastoma (SH) is a benign and highly vascularized tumor. Microsurgical treatment of SH is still challenging due to excessive intraoperative bleeding.
methodsSixty-six consecutive patients with SH were retrospectively analyzed. The volume of intraoperative blood loss (IBL) and the features detected by magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) were evaluated by a neurosurgeon and multiple neuroradiologists.
resultsFour striking MRI features-peritumoral edema, the flow-void effect, large draining veins, and a visible feeding artery-were related to excessive IBL. Regarding the weighted values of these risk factors, the flow-void effect was the factor most significantly correlated with IBL (P<0.01, R=0.418). The feeding artery also contributed substantially to excessive IBL (P<0.05, R=0.412). The next most influential factor was the presence of large draining veins (P<0.05, R=0.350), followed by peritumoral edema (P<0.05, R=0.308). The four major risk factors-the flow-void effect, feeding arteries, large draining veins, and peritumoral edema-were assigned point values of 3, 3, 2, and 1, respectively, for a maximum total score of 9 points. A higher total score indicates that a higher volume of bleeding is more likely to occur during surgery.
conclusionsThis study reports the potential neuroimaging-based risk factors leading to abundant IBL in SH by neuroimaging assessment. The study proposes a novel scoring system to predict IBL, potentially decreasing the risk involved in the surgical treatment of SH.
