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

Diffuse leptomeningeal glioneuronal tumor (DLGNT) is a rare primary central nervous system tumor. We present the case of a five-year-old male patient with a rapid progression of a thoracic DLGNT. Initial presentation and workup confirmed acute communicating hydrocephalus requiring a ventriculoperitoneal shunt. Cerebrospinal fluid analysis showed hyperproteinorrachia. Additional workup demonstrated an intramedullary mass at the conus medullaris associated with leptomeningeal enhancement. A T10-T12 laminoplasty with tumor resection was performed. Immunohistochemistry was positive for glial fibrillary acid protein and synaptophysin, with a negative epithelial membrane antigen. The tumor had a Ki67 proliferation index of 9%. Gene tumor analysis revealed the presence of the
