Brain Cancers in Genetic Syndromes.
Review in Current neurology and neuroscience reports, 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
purpose of reviewAlthough genetic conditions that cause primary central nervous system tumors are rare, their pathophysiology influences both treatment and surveillance. This article reviews the most frequently occurring genetic conditions associated with brain cancers and highlights the most recent therapeutic approaches in the treatment of Lynch syndrome (and other disorders of the mismatch repair system), neurofibromatosis 1, and Li-Fraumeni syndrome. RECENT
findingsRecent advances in molecular diagnostics have considerably improved the ability to diagnose genetic conditions in people with primary brain tumors. The common application of next-generation sequencing analyses of tissue increases the frequency with which clinicians are forced to address the possibility of an underlying genetic condition based on tissue molecular findings. Clinicians must be aware of the clinical presentation of genetic conditions predisposing to brain tumors in order to discern which patients are appropriate for germline genetic testing. Advances in therapeutics for specific genetic variants are increasingly available, and accurately diagnosing an underlying genetic condition may directly impact patient outcomes.
