Sex-related incidence and survival differences in pediatric high-grade glioma subtypes: A population-based cohort study.
Article in iScience, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 4 papers.
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.
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
Not much is known on sex differences in incidence, survival, and treatment characteristics for midline and hemispheric pHGGs. This population-based study confirms previously reported study results that found worse survival outcomes for malignant diffuse gliomas in girls in the age group 0-9 years. Additionally, in our study we pinpoint this difference to girls with midline pHGGs aged 0-4 years. We provide insight in the possible underlying mechanisms contributing to sex survival differences in pHGG patients. With first line treatment having no impact on the higher risk of dying for girls, but age and tumor characteristics having a neutralizing effect. The results of this population-based study serve as a basis for future pre-clinical and clinical studies to further unravel the underlying mechanisms responsible for the survival gap between sexes in midline pHGG.
