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

Purpose: This study aims to compare the short-term surgery outcomes of the resection of meningiomas and clinical characteristics between elderly and non-elderly patients. Patients and Methods: This retrospective study included patients who underwent a resection of middle third parasagittal and parafalcine meningiomas between January 2011 and December 2020. All lesions arise from the middle third of the parafalcine or infiltrate superior sagittal sinus (SSS). The clinical characteristics studied included neurological deficit, peritumoral brain edema (PTBE), SSS invasion, tumor size, and symptoms; perioperative complications, and short-term surgery outcomes including neurological deficit, operative blood loss, postoperative hospitalization duration, and WHO classification were compared. Results: A total of 43 elderly patients and 63 non-elderly patients were included. Compared with non-elderly patients, elderly patients had larger lesions ( Conclusion: Among the 106 patients with middle third parasagittal and falx meningiomas in our hospital, elderly patients had larger lesions, presented with more severe PTBE, and had longer postoperative hospital stays than younger patients. Conversely, younger patients had more blood loss and serious complications than elderly patients. Postoperative neurological dysfunction in elderly patients was similar to that in middle-aged and young patients.
