Predictive Power of MIB-1 vs. Mitotic Count on Progression-Free Survival in Skull-Base Meningioma.
Article in Cancers, 2022. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 4 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
Although meningiomas are mainly non-aggressive and slow-growing tumors, there is a remarkable recurrence rate in a long-term follow-up. Proliferative activity and progression-free survival (PFS) differs significantly among the anatomic location of meningiomas. The aim of the present study was to investigate the predictive power of MIB-1 labeling index and mitotic count (MC) regarding the probability of PFS in the subgroup of skull-base meningiomas. A total of 145 patients were included in this retrospective study. Histopathological examinations and follow-up data were collected. Ideal cut-off values for MIB-1 and MC were ≥4.75 and ≥6.5, respectively. MIB-1 as well as MC were good predictors for PFS in skull-base meningiomas. Time-dependent analysis of MIB-1 and MC in prediction of recurrence of skull-base meningioma showed that their prognostic values were comparable, but different cut-offs for MC should be considered regarding the meningioma's location. As the achievement of a gross total resection can be more challenging in skull-base meningiomas and second surgery implies a higher risk profile, the recurrence risk could be stratified according to these findings and guide decision-making for follow-ups vs. adjuvant therapies.
