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

Meningiomas are the most common benign intracranial tumors. They often require surgical resection and postoperative radiation/chemotherapy based on their histologic grade. While necrosis caused by preoperative embolization and spontaneous tumor infarction is appreciated by pathologists when staging meningiomas, intraoperative events including large bore artery occlusion may also alter the histopathologic picture of a benign meningioma. Hence, they should be considered when signs of unexpected ischemia and necrosis are found, as these same phenotypes are also hallmarks of a higher-grade disease. We describe a case of a man with a large ventral foramen magnum meningioma who underwent temporary intraoperative occlusion of the vertebral artery, leading to ischemic tumor necrosis with abundant neutrophil invasion when the tumor was eventually examined histologically.
