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

backgroundGlioblastoma (GB) represents the most aggressive type of glioma with a poor prognosis despite the therapies used. As of today, data availability for therapeutic and prognosis experiences is limited. The cornerstone for this study is to create a framework overview of Mexico´s experience throughout 17 years of research.

methodsRetrospective analysis from 2000 to 2017 including patients with a histological diagnosis of GB was performed. Data were collected from the ABC Medical Center and the Neurology and Neurosurgery National Institute.

resultsOne hundred and thirty-seven patients were included with a mean age of 54 years. Histological diagnosis was made in all patients, of which 58.1% had a total resection, 31.6% had a partial resection, and 10.3% of them underwent biopsy. In all cases, patients received treatment under the following conditions: 10 patients were treated exclusively with stereotactic radiotherapy (RT). In 55 patients, a combination of RT and TMZ was used, the other 40 patients received RT plus CBP. Eighteen patients RT added to nitrosourea medication and lastly, 14 patients received a combination of RT/TMZ and Bevacizumab, a monoclonal antibody that inhibits the formation of blood vessels (BVZ). The progression-free survival (PFS) and overall survival (OS) were higher in the RT/TMZ/BVZ group (16.5 to 22.9 months) and the RT/TMZ group (11 to 17 months), the prognostic parameters included: Isocitrate dehydrogenase 1 mutation (

conclusionsGB represents the most frequent intracranial neoplasia. Combined fractionated stereotactic RT added to Temozolomide and Bevacizumab received in our population reports favorable and superior results compared to the ones described in the literature. Further studies are necessary to know the biological behavior of our population.
