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

purposeThe Response Assessment in Neuro-Oncology (RANO) criteria for lower-grade gliomas (LGGs) define tumor progression as ≥25% change in the T2/FLAIR signal area based on an operator's discretion of the perpendicular diameter of the largest tumor cross-section. Potential sources of error include acquisition inconsistency of 2D slices, operator selection variabilities in both representative tumor cross-section and measurement line locations, and the inability to quantify infiltrative tumor margins and satellite lesions. Our goal was to assess the accuracy and reproducibility of RANO in LG. MATERIALS AND

methodsA total of 651 FLAIR MRIs from 63 participants with LGGs were retrospectively analyzed by three blinded attending physicians and three blinded resident trainees using RANO criteria, 2D visual assessment, and computer-assisted 3D volumetric assessment.

resultsRANO product measurements had poor-to-moderate inter-operator reproducibility (r

conclusionRANO-based assessment of LGGs has moderate reproducibility and poor accuracy when compared to either visual or volumetric ground truths.
