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

introductionmeningioma is the most common intracranial tumor. CT scan is a common method for diagnosis. WHO classified meningioma into 3 histological grades? This study aims to evaluate the relation of different meningioma signs on CT and tumor distribution regard to WHO histological types.

methodsIn this single-center observational retrospective study, authors reviewed data of 75 meningioma patients confirmed by the WHO histological grades (WHO I/II/III) which were underwent CT scans from January 1, 2005 to December 30, 2019 at a teaching hospital, in XXXX. Data collected using patients medical records. Data were analyzed by SPSS 20 and P less than 0.05 was assumed as significant.

resultOur study confirmed that only edema (P = 0.005) and heterogeneity (P = 0.014) had a significant association with malignant histological types. Other signs were not statistically different among WHO histology types (p > 0.05). On the subject of tumor location, atypical/malignant meningioma was significantly more common in parasagittal (P = 0.031) and front-parietal (P = 0.035) regions. DISCUSSION: meningiomas with Edema, heterogeneity on CT, and tumors located in parasagittal and frontoparietal regions are related to malignant histology and should be evaluated and treated more precisely.
