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

The immunohistochemical loss of histone H3 trimethylated in lysine 27 (H3K27me3) was recently shown to predict recurrence of meningiomas after surgery. However, its association with tumor progression after stereotactic radiosurgery (SRS) is unexplored. To investigate whether H3K27 methylation status may predict progression-free survival (PFS) after SRS, we assessed H3K27me3 immunoexpression in thirty-nine treatment naïve, intracranial, meningiomas, treated with surgery and subsequent SRS for residual (twenty-three cases) or recurrent (sixteen cases) disease. H3K27me3 immunostaining was lost in seven meningiomas, retained in twenty-seven and inconclusive in five. Six of the seven meningiomas (86%) with H3K27me3 loss had tumor progression after SRS, compared to nine of twenty-seven (33%) with H3K27me3 retention (
