Long-term neurocognitive, psychological, and return to work outcomes in meningioma patients.
Article in Supportive care in cancer : official journal of the Multinational Association of Supportive Care in Cancer, 2022. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 20 papers, 1 of them a synthesis that pooled 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.
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
introductionThis study aimed to investigate long-term neurocognitive, psychological, and return to work (RTW) outcomes in meningioma patients, and to explore whether neurocognitive and psychological factors influence RTW outcomes in this population.
methodsIn this retrospective study, 61 meningioma patients completed in-depth clinical neuropsychological assessments. Of these participants, 42 were of working-age and had RTW information available following neuropsychological assessment. Seventy-one percent and 80% of patients received radiation and surgery, respectively, with 49% receiving both radiation and surgery. Associations between demographic, medical, neurocognitive, psychological, and RTW data were analyzed using multivariable logistic regression analyses.
resultsIn our sample, 68% of patients exhibited global neurocognitive impairment, with the largest effect sizes found on tests of visual memory (d = 0.73), executive function (d = 0.61), and attention (d = 0.54). Twenty-seven percent exhibited moderate to severe levels of depressive symptoms. In addition, 23% and 30% exhibited clinically significant state and trait anxiety, respectively. Forty-eight percent of patients were unable to RTW. Younger age, faster visuomotor processing speed, and, unexpectedly, higher trait anxiety scores were associated with an increased likelihood of returning to work.
conclusionsMeningioma patients are at risk of experiencing neurocognitive deficits, psychological symptoms, and difficulties returning to work. Our results suggest that neurocognitive and psychological factors contribute to RTW status in meningioma patients. Prospective research studies are necessary to increase our understanding of the complexity of functional disability in this growing population.
