Evaluation of Surgical Cleavage Plane by Preoperative Magnetic Resonance Imaging Findings in Adult Intracranial Meningiomas.
Article in Life (Basel, Switzerland), 2022. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 6 papers.
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
(1) Background: Meningiomas are usually benign encapsulated intracranial tumors with well-defined borders that offer a high chance of cure with complete removal. The aim of this study was to evaluate the association between preoperative MRI features and surgical plane of cleavage. (2) Materials and Methods: This was a cross-sectional observational study conducted in the Department of Neurosurgery, Bangabandhu Sheikh Mujib Medical University. Data were recorded from 48 study participants with confirmed intracranial meningioma and analyzed by IBM SPSS (version 23). (3) Results: The highest incidence of intracranial meningioma was observed in the third decade of life of our study participants. The female to male ratio was 1.82:1. The most common location of meningiomas was convexity (29.16%), sphenoid wing (22.91%), parasagittal (20.83%), and falcine (14.58%). Most of the patients (68.8%) had medium-sized tumors, and 75.0% exhibited hyperintense signal change in the tumor parenchyma on T2-weighted imaging. One-third (33.3%) of patients were characterized as no edema, focal edema, and lobar/hemispheric edema. There was no statistically significant association between tumor size and types of surgical cleavage plane. Different signal intensities of tumor parenchyma, as well as types of peritumoral edema, showed no statistically significant association with surgical cleavage plane (p > 0.05). (4) Conclusion: There was no association among the size of the tumor, extent of peritumoral edema, the intensity of the tumor on T2-weighted images, and the types of surgical cleavage plane. Future studies with larger sample sizes are required to find out more precise findings.
