MRI comparative study of diffuse midline glioma, H3 K27-altered and glioma in the midline without H3 K27-altered.
Article in BMC neurology, 2022. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 14 papers, 1 of them a synthesis that pooled 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.
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
purposeThe MRI features of Diffuse midline glioma, H3 K27-altered and glioma in the midline without H3 K27-altered were compared and analyzed, and the changes in the apparent diffusion coefficient (ADC) of the two groups were quantitatively analyzed.
methodsThe MRI images of 35 patients with Diffuse midline gliomas, H3 K27-altered and gliomas in the midline without H3 K27-altered were analyzed retrospectively. The location, edge, signal, peritumoral edema and enhancement characteristics of the lesions were observed, and the changes in ADC values were analyzed.
resultsIn the H3 K27-altered group, 85.7% (12/14) of the tumors were located in the thalamus and brainstem compared with 28.6% (6/21) in the no H3 K27-altered group. In the H3 K27-altered group, for tumors only located in the midline area, only 14.3% (1/7) had irregular shapes and unclear boundaries, while for tumors also invaded the extramidline tissues 85.7% (6/7) had irregular shapes and unclear boundaries.The"basilar artery wrapped sign" was found in 6 patients with tumors located in the pons in the H3 K27-altered group, but none in the no H3 K27-altered group had this sign. In the H3 K27-altered group, only 14.3% (1/7) of the tumors confined to the midline area had small cystic degeneration and necrosis, while for tumors also invaded the extramidline tissues, 100% (7/7) of the tumors had cystic degeneration and necrosis, and the cystic degeneration and necrosis only located in the extramidline region of the tumor in 6 cases.A total of 78.6% (11/14) of tumors in the H3 K27-altered group showed mild to moderate enhancement, while 47.6% (10/21) of tumors in the no H3 K27-altered group showed mild to moderate enhancement. The average peritumoral edema index was 1.13 in the H3 K27-altered group and 1.75 in the no H3 K27-altered group. The average ADC value of tumor in the H3 K27-altered group was 7.83 × 10
conclusionCompared with gliomas in the midline without H3 K27-altered, The MRI findings and ADC value of Diffuse midline gliomas, H3K27-altered have some characteristics, which can help improve the diagnosis and differential diagnosis.
