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

Spinal meningiomas are relatively rare, but account for a significant proportion of primary spinal tumors in adults. These meningiomas can be found anywhere along the spinal column and their diagnosis is often delayed due to their slow growth and the lack of significant neurological symptoms until they reach a critical size, at which point signs of spinal cord or nerve root compression generally manifest and progress. If left untreated, spinal meningiomas can cause severe neurological deficits including rendering patients paraplegic or tetraplegic. In this chapter we will review the clinical features of spinal meningiomas, their surgical management, and detail molecular features that differentiate them from intracranial meningiomas.
