Diffuse leptomeningeal glioneuronal tumour (DLGNT) with hydrocephalus as an initial symptom: a case-based update.
Review in Child's nervous system : ChNS : official journal of the International Society for Pediatric Neurosurgery, 2020. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 19 papers, 2 of them syntheses that pooled 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.
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
purposeDiffuse leptomeningeal glioneuronal tumour (DLGNT) is a rare disease classified in 2016. There are different views of the clinical, pathologic and neuroradiologic characteristics of DLGNT due to the minor studies on this disease.
methodsWe describe a case of a 12-year-old boy who initially presented intermittent headache, vomiting and communicating hydrocephalus. A literature review is also presented summarizing the clinical characteristics and treatments of DLGNT.
resultsIn our case, a ventriculoperitoneal shunt was applied to reduce intracranial pressure caused by communicating hydrocephalus. T1-weighted contrast-enhanced magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) showed linear enhancement, and microscopy showed tumour-like spindle cells. The diagnosis of DLGNT was confirmed, and temozolomide was administered. The clinical characteristics were similar in the reported cases, while the treatments showed differences.
conclusionVentriculoperitoneal shunts are effective for patients with hydrocephalus-related intracranial hypertension. Chemotherapy including temozolomide has shown varying outcomes, and further studies are expected.
