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

Background: Glioblastoma is the most common primary malignant brain tumor with characteristic radiological features in most cases. Case Description: We highlight an unusual case of a 54-year-old woman, neurologically intact, with a diagnostically challenging lesion. The patient's magnetic resonance imaging revealed a left frontal lesion with surrounding edema and a hemosiderin ring, misleading it to be a cavernoma. Intraoperatively, the lesion was found to be a solid tumor with hematoma and was confirmed to be glioblastoma on histopathology. Conclusion: The dilemma associated with our patient's radiological findings and longstanding history of epilepsy is rare and a diagnostic challenge.
