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

backgroundPeople with NF1 have an increased prevalence of central nervous system malignancy. However, little is known about the clinical course or pathologic features of NF1-associated gliomas in adults, limiting clinical care and research.

methodsAdults (≥18 years) with NF1 and histologically confirmed non-optic pathway gliomas (non-OPGs) at Johns Hopkins Hospital, Memorial Sloan Kettering Cancer Center, and Washington University presenting between 1990 and 2020 were identified. Retrospective data were collated, and pathology was reviewed centrally.

resultsForty-five patients, comprising 23 females (51%), met eligibility criteria, with a median of age 37 (18-68 years) and performance status of 80% (30%-100%). Tissue was available for 35 patients. Diagnoses included infiltrating (low-grade) astrocytoma (9), glioblastoma (7), high-grade astrocytoma with piloid features (4), pilocytic astrocytoma (4), high-grade astrocytoma (3), WHO diagnosis not reached (4) and one each of gliosarcoma, ganglioglioma, embryonal tumor, and diffuse midline glioma. Seventy-one percent of tumors were midline and underwent biopsy only. All 27 tumors evaluated were IDH1-wild-type, independent of histology. In the 10 cases with molecular testing, the most common genetic variants were NF1, EGFR, ATRX, CDKN2A/B, TP53, TERT, and MSH2/3 mutation. While the treatments provided varied, the median overall survival was 24 months [2-267 months] across all ages, and 38.5 [18-109] months in individuals with grade 1-2 gliomas.

conclusionsNon-OPGs in adults with NF1, including low-grade tumors, often have an aggressive clinical course, indicating a need to better understand the pathobiology of these NF1-associated gliomas.
