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

backgroundPrimary intracranial sarcoma is a very rare high-grade tumor. Scant reports exist on this malignancy in children, which limit the information about its imaging characteristics.

objectiveWe aimed to describe the main characteristics of primary intracranial sarcoma on MRI. MATERIALS AND

methodsIn this cross-sectional descriptive observational study, we reviewed 18 patients (aged 1-18 years) with primary intracranial sarcomas diagnosed between 2015 and 2021.

resultsThe main findings were contrast enhancement (100%), diffusion restriction (78%), hemorrhage (89%), meningeal extension (67%), necrosis (67%), and supratentorial location (72%).

conclusionPrimary intracranial sarcoma are typically supratentorial in location. MRI findings of primary intracranial sarcoma are similar to other intracranial malignancies.
