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

purposeTo investigate the magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) images of brain glioma before postoperative radiotherapy, and to provide reference for the delineation of postoperative radiotherapy target area.

methodsRetrospective analysis was performed on 106 cases of brain glioma confirmed by surgery and pathology in our hospital, including 70 cases of high-grade glioma (HGG) and 36 cases of low-grade glioma (LGG). The MRI images of the lesions within 1 month before and after surgery were analyzed, the apparent diffusion coefficient (ADC) values in the near and far tumor areas were measured, respectively, and the corresponding rADC values were calculated.

resultsThe incidence of residual tumors of postoperative HGG and LGG was 0, 15.7% (0/36, 11/70), respectively. The incidence of postoperative reactive enhancement was 11.0% and 52.9% (4/36 and 37/70), respectively. About 30.6% and 81.4% (11/36 and 57/70) of patients with adjacent meningeal enhancement were found in the operative area.

conclusionsThe MRI images of HGG and LGG before postoperative radiotherapy had certain characteristics, providing a favorable guidance for the delineation of the target area of radiotherapy and the formulation of treatment plan.
