Motor dysfunction as a primary symptom predicts poor outcome: multicenter study of glioma symptoms.

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
Background and objectives: The objectives of this study were to investigate the prognostic value of primary symptoms and leading symptoms in adult patients with diffuse infiltrating glioma and to provide a clinical perspective for evaluating survival. Methods: This study included a retrospective cohort from two tertiary university hospitals ( Results: The most common primary symptoms were epileptic seizure (30.8% retrospective, 28.2% prospective), cognitive disorder (13.2% retrospective, 16.0% prospective), headache (8.6% retrospective, 12.8% prospective), and motor paresis (7.0% retrospective, 7.1% prospective). Symptoms that predicted better survival were epileptic seizure and visual or other sense-affecting symptom in the retrospective cohort and epileptic seizure and headache in the prospective cohort. Predictors of poor survival were cognitive disorder, motor dysfunction, sensory symptom, tumor hemorrhage, speech disorder and dizziness in the retrospective cohort and cognitive disorder, motor dysfunction, sensory symptom, and dizziness in the prospective cohort. Motor dysfunction served as an independent predictor of survival in a multivariate model (OR = 1.636). Conclusion: Primary and leading symptoms in diffuse gliomas are associated with prognoses in retrospective and prospective settings. Motor paresis was an independent prognostic factor for poor survival in multivariate analysis for grade 2-4 diffuse gliomas, especially in glioblastomas.
