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

A 16-year-old male presented with a three year history of right proptosis. All other ocular findings were normal. Imaging demonstrated a large, calcified, contrast-enhancing mass in the apical orbit. The tumour had high gallium-68-DOTATATE uptake and low 18F-2-fluoro-2-deoxy-D-glucose uptake. An incisional biopsy revealed a diagnosis of psammomatous optic nerve sheath meningioma (ONSM). One year later stereotactic radiotherapy was performed due to tumour growth. Tumour size and visual acuity remained stable in the six months after treatment. This case differs from previously reported paediatric ONSMs by its histo-clinical characteristics (exophytic-calcified mass, visual preservation, psammomatous histology).
