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

objectivesEven very small residual tumors of IDH mutant 1p/19q non-codeleted (IDHmut-Noncodel) astrocytoma could have a significantly negative impact on survival; thus, accurate preoperative diagnosis is of utmost importance to guide aggressive tumor resection strategy for this subtype. This study aimed to diagnose IDHmut-Noncodel from IDH mutant 1p/19q codeleted (IDHmut-Codel) and IDH wild-type gliomas by preoperative MRI and CT to guide surgical plan-making.

methodsConsecutive adult patients diagnosed with diffuse lower-grade glioma (LGG, histological grade 2-3) from December 1, 2013 to December 31, 2020, were retrospectively included in this study. Clinical and radiological features were recorded and analyzed. Patients were divided into cohort A and cohort B for training and validation based on the operation date (2:1).

resultsA total of 585 patients were included in this study (cohort A, 390; cohort B, 195). The hyperintense FLAIR rim with hypointense core (hyperFLAIRrim) was a more sensitive sign than T2-FLAIR mismatch (T2FM) in defining IDHmut-Noncodel astrocytoma (sensitivity in cohort A: 0.713, 0.539, respectively; in cohort B: 0.713, 0.489, respectively) without compromised specificity (all 1.00). The hyperFLAIRrim, higher rADC, homogenous pattern on T2WI, non-calcification, and younger age were the most important factors associated with IDHmut-Noncodel astrocytoma. Combining these factors, the random forest model showed the best predictive ability.

conclusionThe hyperFLAIRrim sign was a specific and more sensitive sign in diagnosing IDHmut-Noncodel astrocytoma. Combining hyperFLAIRrim, higher rADC, homogenous pattern, non-calcification, and younger age could precisely predict glioma subtype for subsequent surgical plan-making. KEY POINTS: • A single hyperintense FLAIR rim (hyperFLAIRrim) sign with a hypointense core, regardless of T2 appearance, was more sensitive than T2FM in diagnosing IDHmut-Noncodel astrocytoma with high specificity. • The higher rADC value, homogenous pattern on T2WI, non-calcification, and younger age have a close relationship with IDHmut-Noncodel astrocytoma. • Neurosurgeons should perform a more aggressive resection strategy to prolong survival for radiologically indicated IDHmut-Noncodel astrocytoma. Our study provided a usable, practicable, and reliable protocol for neurosurgeons to make an individualized surgical strategy.
