Role of magnetic resonance imaging following postoperative radiotherapy in clinical decision-making of patients with high-grade glioma.
Article in La Radiologia medica, 2022. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 8 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
objectivesThe present study aims to investigate the role of the first magnetic resonances (MRI) following radio-chemotherapy (RT-CT) in patients diagnosed with high-grade glioma.
methodsWe retrospectively recorded radiological evaluations following RT-CT, symptoms related to disease progression (avoiding any sign due to radiotherapy or chemotherapy) and the change of therapeutic strategy.
resultsIn March 2021, at data analysis, the data of 149 patients diagnosed with high-grade glioma and treated between May 2013 and July 2020 were retrieved for the present analysis. Two out of 122 (1.6%), 5 out of 106 (4.7%) and 8 out of 92 (8.6%) asymptomatic patients received the diagnosis of disease recurrence at the time of the first, second and third MRI, respectively. Otherwise, 16 out of 27 (59.2%), 16 out of 24 (66.6%) and 13 out of 16 (82.2%) symptomatic patients changed their therapy after the first, second and third MRI, respectively. Among patients that experienced radiological signs of distant progression, 10 out of 14 were symptomatic and changed their therapy.
conclusionsMRIs performed by 6 months after the end of RT-CT lead to change treatment strategy mostly in symptomatic patients.
