Population-based analysis of radiation-induced gliomas after cranial radiotherapy for childhood cancers.
Article in Neuro-oncology advances. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 6 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
Background: Cranial radiotherapy (RT) used for pediatric CNS cancers and leukemias carries a risk of secondary CNS malignancies, including radiation-induced gliomas (RIG). Our aim was to characterize the epidemiology of RIG. Methods: This retrospective study used SEER data (1975-2016). Cohort 1 included patients diagnosed with glioma as a second malignancy ≥2 years after receiving treatment for a first malignancy diagnosed at 0-19 years, either a primary CNS tumor (1a, Results: For Cohort 1, 0.77% of patients receiving cranial RT developed RIG. 3.39% of patients receiving cranial RT for primary CNS tumors fell in cohort 2. Median latency to RIG diagnosis was 11.1 years and was significantly shorter for cohort 1b than 1a. Median OS for cohort 1 was 9.0 months. Receiving surgery, radiation, or chemotherapy were all associated with a nonstatistically significant improvement in OS ( Conclusion: A total of 1%-4% of patients undergoing cranial RT for pediatric cancers later developed RIG, which can occur 3-35 years after RT. Given the substantial and likely underestimated impact on overall CNS tumor mortality, RIG is deserving of increased attention in preclinical and clinical studies.
