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

backgroundIn the POLA cohort, 3 pathological groups of CNS WHO grade 3 oligodendroglioma IDH-mutant and 1p/19q co-deleted have been described: group 1 (high mitotic count only), group 2 (microvascular proliferation MVP and no necrosis), and group 3 (MVP and necrosis).

methods494 patients from the POLA cohort, with a median follow-up of 96 months were included. To identify the impact of the pathological groups and contrast enhancement (CE) in group 1 on overall survival (OS) or progression-free survival (PFS), survival curves were obtained (Kaplan-Meier method) and compared (log-rank test). The prognostic value of clinical factors and CDKN2A homozygous deletion HD were also tested. Multivariate analysis was performed.

resultsSurvival analysis demonstrated that the pathological groups were associated with both progression-free survival (PFS P = .01) and overall survival (OS P = .001). In group 1, patients with CE (1CE+) had a poorer prognosis compared to those without (OS P = .028, PFS P = .006). Further stratification into group 1CE-, group 1CE+, group 2, and group 3 provided clearer prognostic distinctions (OS P = .002, PFS P < .0001). Other prognostic factors included age (OS P < .0001, PFS P = .002), extent of surgical resection (OS P = .001, PFS P = .003), KPS (OS P < .0001, PFS P = 0.002), postoperative treatment (OS P = .007, PFS P < .0001), and CDKN2A HD (OS and PFS P < .0001). The pathological groups remained of prognostic significance for PFS in multivariate analysis.

conclusionsNecrosis and CDKN2A HD are adverse prognostic factors of WHO grade 3 oligodendrogliomas, IDH-mutant, and 1p/19q co-deleted. Besides, in group 1 patients, lack of CE is a factor of better prognosis.
