Surgical Treatment of Paediatric Thalamic Gliomas-Single-Centre Experience.
Article in Brain sciences, 2024. 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
The surgical treatment of paediatric thalamic gliomas has been burdened with high morbidity, and these lesions were often considered inoperable. With new approaches and intraoperative technologies, we can remove tumours once deemed inoperable. In our single centre, we have operated on 11 paediatric patients over the course of 8 years. We have performed eight GTR resections and three intended subtotal resections. The postoperative neurological deficit ranged from mild to very severe for motor weakness and none to severe for aphasia after surgery, with all of the patients improving at 3-month follow-up. Radicality in the surgical approach to thalamic gliomas in children has shown significant benefits when compared to more conservative approaches. For children with LGGs, extensive surgical resection is associated with improved prognosis and longer progression-free survival. However, it does not yield the same proportional benefit for HGGs due to its aggressive nature and worse outlook.
