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

introductionMeningiomas are the most common benign intracranial neoplasms. CNS invasion in meningiomas has been integrated into the 2016 WHO classification of CNS tumors as a stand-alone criterion for atypia. Since then, its prognostic impact has been debated based on contradictory results from retrospective analyses. The aim of the study was to elucidate whether histopathological evidence of CNS invasion is associated with increased proliferative potential.

methodsWe have conducted a quantified measurement of the proliferation marker Ki67 and analyzed its association with CNS invasion determined by histology together with other established prognostic markers of progression. Routine, immunohistochemical staining for Ki67 were digitalized and automatic quantification was done using Image J software.

resultsOverall, 1718 meningiomas were assessed. Histopathological CNS invasion was seen in 108 cases (6.7%). Uni- and multivariate analysis revealed a significantly higher Ki67 proliferation rate in meningiomas with CNS invasion (p < 0.0001 and p = 0.0098, respectively).

conclusionsMeningiomas with histopathological CNS invasion show a higher proliferative activity.
