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

Since the initial description of intraneural (IN) perineurioma in 1964, advances in the understanding of the clinical presentation, diagnostic imaging, pathologic features, and genetic underpinnings have changed how this pathology is managed. IN perineuriomas are rare, benign peripheral nerve sheath tumors, most frequently coming to clinical attention when patients present with painless, progressive weakness or sensory loss in adolescence or young adulthood. The gold standard of diagnosis has traditionally been with targeted tissue biopsy demonstrating "pseudo-onion bulb" formation with positive epithelial membrane antigen (EMA) staining. However, modern magnetic resonance imaging is allowing some patients to forgo biopsy. Recent genetic studies of IN perineuriomas have demonstrated common TRAF7 point mutations and rare NF2 mutations, which may present targets for diagnosis or therapy in the future. Current advances have allowed for us to provide improved patient counseling with informed understanding for various clinical scenarios. With the workup and diagnosis now clearly defined, the next frontier is for improving the lives of patients with IN perineuriomas through the interaction between restoration of functional deficits and advances in our understanding of the genetics of this entity.
