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

This study reports on diffuse leptomeningeal glioneuronal tumor (DL-GNT) in a 29-year-old male. DL-GNT is a rare central nervous system (CNS) tumor mostly seen in children and only few cases have been reported in adult patients. Our patient presented with a chronic headache that lasted for five months. MR imaging showed mild hydrocephalus, multiple rim-enhancing nodular lesions in the suprasellar cistern, diffuse leptomeningeal enhancement in the lumbosacral area, and multiple small non-enhancing cyst-appearing lesions not suppressed on fluid attenuated inversion recovery (FLAIR) images in the bilateral basal ganglia, thalami, and cerebral hemispheres. Under the impression of germ cell tumor with leptomeningeal seeding, the patient underwent trans-sphenoidal tumor removal. DL-GNT was pathologically confirmed and FGFR1 mutation was detected through a next-generation sequencing test. In conclusion, a combination of leptomeningeal enhancement and multiple parenchymal non-enhancing cyst-appearing lesions not suppressed on FLAIR images may be helpful for differential diagnosis despite overlapping imaging features with many other CNS diseases that have leptomeningeal enhancement.
