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

Angiocentric glioma is a rare brain tumor commonly found in frontal or temporal lobes. It has a benign course, and surgical resection can be curative. Brainstem location is extremely rare, with only six cases reported so far in the literature. In the present study, the seventh case of brainstem angiocentric glioma has been reported, and its course in comparison with supratentorial location and the role of molecular diagnosis has been discussed.
