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

purposeThis article is the first in a two-part series designed to provide a comprehensive overview of the range of supratentorial intraventricular masses observed in children. Our primary objective is to discuss the diverse types of intraventricular masses that originate not only from cells within the choroid plexus but also from other sources.

methodsIn this article, we review relevant epidemiological data, the current genetics/molecular classification as outlined in the fifth edition of the World Health Organization's Classification of tumours of the Central Nervous System and noteworthy imaging findings. We conduct an exhaustive analysis of primary choroid plexus tumours as well as other conditions such as choroid plexus hyperplasia, choroid plexus cyst, choroid plexus xanthogranuloma, atypical teratoid rhabdoid tumour, meningioma, arteriovenous malformation and metastasis.

resultsWe comprehensively evaluated each supratentorial intraventricular mass, providing an in-depth analysis of their unique clinical and histological characteristics. The fifth edition of the World Health Organization Classification of Tumours of the Central Nervous System introduces major modifications. These important changes could potentially have a profound impact on the management strategies and subsequent outcomes of these tumours.

conclusionIntraventricular masses in children can arise from various sources. Surgical intervention is key for certain supratentorial intraventricular masses in paediatric patients, with preoperative neuroimaging essential to decide the best treatment approach, surgical or otherwise, as some cases may not require surgery.
