Clinicopathological characteristics and treatment outcomes of epithelioid glioblastoma.
Article in Neurosurgical review, 2021. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 7 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
Epithelioid glioblastoma is a new variant of glioblastoma that has been recently recognized in the 2016 WHO classification of brain tumors. Given the rarity of epithelioid glioblastoma, the clinical characteristics, pathological features, radiological findings, and treatment outcomes are still not well characterized. Therefore, we identified eighty-four epithelioid glioblastoma cases to investigate these characteristics and identify the possible prognostic factors of survival. There were 55 male and 29 female patients with a mean age of 33.6 years. Headache (77.3%) was the most common clinical symptom, and other common symptoms included nausea or vomiting (34%), dizziness (20.5%), seizures (13.6%), and limb weakness (13.6%). Most lesions (88.1%) were located in cerebral lobes, especially in the frontal lobe and temporal lobe. One hundred percent of the patients were IDH1 wild-type (75/75) and INI-1 positive (58/58), and 57.3% (47/82) of patients harbored BRAF
