Intraoperative ultrasound in recurrent gliomas surgery: Impact on residual tumor volume and patient outcomes.
Article in Frontiers in oncology, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 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: Reoperation may be beneficial for patients with recurrent gliomas. Minimizing the residual tumor volume (RTV) while ensuring the functionality of relevant structures is the goal of the reoperation of recurrent gliomas. Intraoperative ultrasound (IoUS) may be helpful for intraoperative tumor localization, intraoperative real-time imaging to guide surgical resection, and postoperative evaluation of the RTV in the reoperation for recurrent gliomas. Objective: To assess the effect of real-time ioUS on minimizing RTV in recurrent glioma surgery compared to Non-ioUS. Methods: We retrospectively analyzed the data from 92 patients who had recurrent glioma surgical resection: 45 were resected with ioUS guidance and 47 were resected without ioUS guidance. RTV, Karnofsky Performance Status (KPS) at 6 months after the operation, the number of recurrent patients, and the time to recurrence were evaluated. Results: The average RTV in the ioUS group was significantly less than the Non-ioUS group (0.27 cm Conclusion: The use of ioUS-based real-time for resection of recurrent gliomas has been beneficial in terms of both RTV and postoperative outcomes, compared to the Non-ioUS group.
