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

Background: H3K27-altered diffuse midline glioma (DMG) is a newly classified disease according to the 5 Case Description: A 26-year-old man presented with rapid muscle weakness progression in both upper and lower extremities and urinary dysfunction. Magnetic resonance imaging showed diffuse swelling of the cervicothoracic spinal cord. He underwent decompressive laminectomy with expansive duroplasty and tumor biopsy. The surgical specimen revealed DMG. Immediately after surgery, deterioration of limb paresis was observed, and the patient developed respiratory failure the day after surgery. Head-and-neck computed tomography on the 7 Conclusion: We report a rare case of a spinal DMG with acute postoperative swelling. Neurological deterioration in patients with spinal cord DMG is often exacerbated, so it is essential to suspect DMG at an early stage based on neuroimaging, and if surgery is performed on the edematous spinal cord, further rapid swelling can occur, as in the present case.
