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

High-grade gliomas (HGG) have high malignancy, high heterogeneity, and a poor prognosis. Tumor purity is an intrinsic feature of the HGG microenvironment and an independent prognostic factor. The purpose of this study was to analyze the correlation of tumor purity with clinicopathological, molecular, and imaging features. We performed a retrospective analysis of 112 patients diagnosed with HGG (grades III and IV) in our center. Eleven regions of interest (ROI) were randomly selected on whole-slide images (WSI, 40 × magnification) based on HGG tissue paraffin sections and hematoxylin-eosin (H&E) staining. Of these 11 ROIs, five ROIs were visually estimated by pathologists and six ROIs were automatically analyzed using ImageJ software. Last, the average tumor purity (%) of the 11 ROIs was calculated. Correlation analysis of tumor purity with clinicopathological, molecular, and imaging features was conducted. Of the 112 patients included in the study, the mean tumor purity of HGG was 70.96%. There were differences in tumor purity between WHO grades III and IV; the tumor purity of grade IV patients (67.59%) was lower than that of grade III patients (76.00%) (p < 0.001). There were also differences in tumor purity between IDH1 mutant and wild type, and the tumor purity of IDH1 mutant patients was higher than that of IDH1 wild-type patients (p = 0.006). The average range of peritumoral edema was about 19.18 mm, and the diameter of edema, ADC
