Pediatric Meningiomas: Current Insights on Pathogenesis and Management.
Review in Acta neurochirurgica. Supplement, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 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
Meningiomas are rare tumors in children, ranging from 0.4 to 4% of intracranial tumors. Differently from their adult counterpart, pediatric meningiomas (PMs) often show peculiar aspects such as the development of tumoral cysts, the involvement of the intraventricular space, and missing attachment to the dura mater. The most important difference with adults is represented by the high incidence of WHO grade II and III variants, which can account for more than 70% of cases. The prognosis of PMs mainly depends on the initial surgical resection because radiotherapy, which is the main treatment option in the case of tumor recurrence or progression, does not seem to increase the relapse free survival and the overall survival, and chemotherapy still misses specific and effective protocols.On these grounds, the need to better understand these tumors, to favor an appropriate multidisciplinary management, is particularly felt. The present review is focused on the advances on the pathogenesis, the molecular aspects, and the managements of PMs, with the goal to improve the knowledge of these challenging neoplasms.
