Clinical characteristics, treatment and prognosis of angiocentric glioma.

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
Angiocentric glioma (AG) is a rare subtype of neuroepithelial tumor in children and young adults that commonly presents with seizures. To study the clinical characteristics, treatment and prognosis of patients with AG, the features of two cases of AG were described and 108 cases reported in the literature were assessed. The cases of the present study were two males aged 8 and 16 years, who mainly presented with seizures. MRI revealed superficial, non-enhanced lesions in the left temporal and right frontal lobe, respectively. The two patients underwent gross total resection (GTR) and remained seizure-free without neurological deficits after 3.5 and 2.5 years, respectively. Histopathological examination revealed that the tumors consisted of monomorphous cells that surrounded the blood vessels and neurons in the cerebral cortex, and formed concentric sleeves or pseudorosettes. Furthermore, immunostaining indicated that the diffuse infiltrative neoplastic cells were positive for glial fibrillary acidic protein and a dot-like pattern of epithelial membrane antigen was observed. AG mostly appeared similar to low-grade gliomas on MRI. GTR of the lesions was curative and radiation or chemotherapy were not required. AG typically has a favorable prognosis, with low mortality and incidence of disability.
