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
The aim of this study was to analyze the clinical and radiological characteristics of glioblastomas (GBMs) harboring a BRAF mutation. Sequencing analysis of BRAF, IDH1/2, and TERT promoters was performed on GBM samples of patients older than 15 years. The clinical, pathological, and radiological data of patients were retrospectively reviewed. Patients were classified into three groups according to their BRAF and IDH1/2 status: BRAF group, IDH group, and BRAF/IDH-wild-type (WT) group. Among 179 GBM cases, we identified nine cases with a BRAF mutation and nine with IDH mutation. The WT group had 161 cases. Age at onset in the BRAF group was significantly lower compared to the WT group and was similar to the IDH group. In cases with negative IDH1-R132H staining and age < 55 years, 15.2% were BRAF-mutant cases. Similar to the IDH group, overall survival of the BRAF group was significantly longer compared with the WT group. Among nine cases in the BRAF group, three cases had hemorrhagic onset and prior lesions were observed in two cases. In conclusion, age < 55 years, being IDH1-R132H negative, with hemorrhagic onset or the presence of prior lesions are factors that signal recommendation of BRAF analysis for adult GBM patients.
