Structural plasticity of the bilateral hippocampus in glioma patients.
Observational study in Aging, 2020. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 9 papers.
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
This study investigates the structural plasticity and neuronal reaction of the hippocampus in glioma patient pre-surgery. Ninety-nine glioma patients without bilateral hippocampus involvement (low-grade, n=52; high-grade, n=47) and 80 healthy controls with 3D T1 images and resting-fMRI were included. Hippocampal volume and dynamic amplitude of low-frequency fluctuation (dALFF) were analyzed among groups. Relationships between hippocampal volume and clinical characteristics were assessed. We observed remote hippocampal volume increases in low- and high-grade glioma and a greater response of the ipsilateral hippocampus than the contralesional hippocampus. The bilateral hippocampal dALFF was significantly increased in high-grade glioma. Tumor-associated epilepsy and the IDH-1 mutation did not affect hippocampal volume in glioma patients. No significant relationship between hippocampal volume and age was observed in high-grade glioma. The Kaplan-Meier curve and log-rank test revealed that large hippocampal volume was associated with shorter overall survival (OS) compared with small hippocampal volume (p=0.007). Multivariate Cox regression analysis revealed that large hippocampal volume was an independent predictor of unfavorable OS (HR=3.597, 95% CI: 1.160-11.153, p=0.027) in high-grade glioma. Our findings suggest that the hippocampus has a remarkable degree of plasticity in response to pathological stimulation of glioma and that the hippocampal reaction to glioma may be related to tumor malignancy.
