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

purposeLateral ventricle meningioma (LVM) is a rare type of intracranial meningioma, which has been rarely studied. It has different clinical features, imaging features, and long-term results from other locations. This study investigated the epidemiology, clinical characteristics and prognosis of LVM and comprehensively describes its characteristics.

methodsThis article analyzes the LVMs that were diagnosed pathologically in West China hospital between January 1, 2009 and July 1 2020. Demographic information, imaging characteristics and prognostic factors are discussed. Data analysis was performed using SPSS 23.0 and R version 3.5.3.

resultsWe collected 7202 meningiomas and 195 LVMs (136 females; median age, 46 years; range, 5-81 years) were included in this study. Gross total resection was completed in 189 patients. The OS rate was 93.8%, and the recurrence rate was 5.2%. Multivariate regression analysis showed that sex (P = 0.01) and tumor size (P = 0.018) were related to WHO grade. Postoperative KPS (P = 0.003) was associated with OS. WHO grade (P = 0.025), extent of tumor resection (P < 0.001), and hospital day (P=0.028) were associated with recurrence.

conclusionLVMs require long-term follow-up, individualized treatment, and follow-up strategies to be formulated according to the relevant risk factors.
