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

Radiation therapy plays a vital role in the management of primary spinal tumors in adults. However, due to the rarity of these tumor types, the literature on optimal treatment indications and radiation doses is limited. Many treatment recommendations are extrapolated from their cranial counterparts, where more data are available. Despite the absence of prospective data, numerous retrospective studies have provided valuable insights to guide treatment decisions until more comprehensive data become available. This review provides an overview of the most relevant literature, with a specific focus on spinal gliomas, ependymomas, and meningiomas, in the context of the role of radiation therapy.
