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

Medulloblastoma accounts for nearly 10% of childhood primary central nervous system (CNS) malignancies. However, it is rare in adults. Extracranial metastasis is commonly documented to involve bones but rarely involves lymph nodes. Herein, we present an unusual case of primary CNS medulloblastoma in an adult patient with extracranial metastasis to a lymph node, which exhibits a myogenic differentiation. To the best of our knowledge, this is the fourth reported case of medulloblastoma in an adult with extracranial metastasis to the lymph node and the first reported case of extracranial metastatic medulloblastoma with myogenic differentiation that involves a lymph node.
