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

Background: Gangliogliomas arise very rarely in the pineal region, where their natural histories and pathologic features are poorly understood. Case Description: In this report, we describe a 36-year-old woman who presented with a seizure followed by worsening headache, dizziness, confusion, and intermittent left facial numbness over the next few weeks. A head CT scan showed a partially calcified pineal region mass with hydrocephalus. After an endoscopic third ventriculostomy, the patient underwent a resection of the tumor that contained dysplastic ganglion cells and piloid glial cells. Molecular profiling of this CNS WHO Grade 1 ganglioglioma revealed polysomies of chromosomes 7 and 9, and a Conclusion: Although very rare, this tumor should be considered in the differential diagnosis of pineal region tumors in children and young adults.
