Pathogenesis of central nervous system germ cell tumors.
Review in Frontiers in oncology, 2022. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 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
Intracranial germ cell tumors (IGCTs) are clinically rare. They are more common in children and adolescents and the incidence in Asia is higher than in Western countries. Histologically, IGCTs are divided into germinoma and non-germinomatous germ cell tumor (NGGCT). Germinoma is sensitive to radiotherapy and chemotherapy and therefore, patients with germinoma have a good prognosis. However, NGGCTs, especially those with malignant components, are not sensitive to radiotherapy and chemoradiotherapy, leading to a poor prognosis. The pathogenesis of IGCTs is not fully understood. By summarizing previous literature, we found that the occurrence of IGCTs may be related to the following factors: chromosomal instability, MAPK and/or PI3K pathway changes, and DNA hypomethylation in pure germ cell tumors.
