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

backgroundThe aim of this study was to investigate the relationship between tumor biology and values of cerebral blood volume (CBV), cerebral blood flow (CBF), mean transit time (MTT), time to peak (TTP), permeability surface (PS) of tumor in patients with glioma.

methodsForty-six patients with glioma were involved in the study. Histopathologic and molecular pathology diagnoses were obtained by tumor resection, and all patients accepted perfusion computed tomography (PCT) before operation. Regions of interests were placed manually at tumor and contralateral normal-appearing thalamus. The parameters of tumor were divided by those of contralateral normal-appearing thalamus to normalize at tumor (relative [r] CBV, rCBF, rMTT, rTTP, rPS). The relationships of the parameters, world health organization (WHO) grade, molecular pathological findings were analysed.

resultsThe rCBV, rMTT and rPS of patients are positively related to the pathological classification (P < 0.05). The values of rCBV and rPS in IDH mutated patients were lower than those IDH wild-type. The values of rCBF in patients with MGMT methylation were lower than those MGMT unmethylation (P < 0.05). The MVD of TERT wild-type group was lower than TERT mutated group (P < 0.05). The values of rCBV were significant difference in the four molecular groups divided by the combined IDH/TERT classification (P < 0.05). The progression free survival (PFS) and overall survival (OS) were significant difference in the four molecular groups divided by the combined IDH/TERT classification (P < 0.05).

conclusionsOur study introduces and supports the changes of glioma flow perfusion may be closely related to its biological characteristics.
