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

There is various evidence to suggest a relationship between female hormones and meningiomas; as clinicians, we often come to face challenging situations involving female patients diagnosed with meningiomas during the post-pubertal phases of their life. We aimed to review the specific circumstances (pregnancy, postpartum, hormonal contraception and hormone replacement therapy, gender-affirming hormonal treatment) clinicians might come to face during their daily clinical practice, given the absence of available guidelines. We therefore conducted a narrative review on articles found in PubMed and Embase databases using appropriate keywords. Ninety-six relevant articles were included. The available evidence on managing meningiomas in post-pubertal women often implies personal strategies, highlighting the lack of a unified approach. The knowledge of the biological links between female hormones and meningiomas is fundamental to correctly counsel patients in various life phases. Prospective randomized studies are required to improve available guidelines on how to best manage meningiomas in female post-pubertal patients.
