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

Background: The diffuse growth pattern of glioblastoma is one of the main challenges for accurate treatment. Computational tumor growth modeling has emerged as a promising tool to guide personalized therapy. Here, we performed clinical and biological validation of a novel growth model, aiming to close the gap between the experimental state and clinical implementation. Methods: One hundred and twenty-four patients from The Cancer Genome Archive (TCGA) and 397 patients from the UCSF Glioma Dataset were assessed for significant correlations between clinical data, genetic pathway activation maps (generated with PARADIGM; TCGA only), and infiltration ( Results: The parameter ratio Conclusions: Identifying a significant correlation between computed growth parameters and clinical and biological data, we highlight the potential of tumor growth modeling for individualized therapy of glioblastoma. This might improve the accuracy of radiation planning in the near future.
