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

Meningiomas comprise a histologically and clinically diverse set of tumors arising from the meningothelial lining of the central nervous system. In the past decade, remarkable progress has been made in deciphering the biology of these common neoplasms. Nevertheless, effective systemic or molecular therapies for meningiomas remain elusive and are active areas of preclinical and clinical investigation. Thus, standard treatment modalities for meningiomas are limited to maximal safe resection, radiotherapy, or radiosurgery. This review examines the history, clinical rationale, and future directions of radiotherapy and radiosurgery as integral and effective treatments for meningiomas.
