Imaging of supratentorial ependymomas with radio-pathological correlation.

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
Aim: Supratentorial ependymoma (STE) is a rare tumor with distinct genetic alterations, whose imaging features have been scarcely studied. This study aims to review the computed tomography (CT) and magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) features of a cohort of histopathologically proven STE to identify the distinguishing features of STE, and look for specific signs of zinc finger translocation associated (ZFTA) fused STEs. Methods: Ethical clearance was obtained from the institutional ethics committee. The magnetic resonance (MR) images, CT images when available, clinical details, and pathological reports of 25 patients from a single institute with histopathologically proven STE were retrospectively reviewed. Imaging features, demographic details, pathological and molecular features, and type of surgical resection were described and tabulated. Relevant associations with imaging features were computed and tabulated. Results: The study showed that STEs are common in the pediatric population with no sex predilection. The periventricular location was the most common. A significant association between periventricular location and the presence of a cystic component ( Conclusions: This study attempts to identify the imaging features of STEs and their associations with molecular pathology and surgical outcome, and the distinguishing features of ZFTA fused STEs.
