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
objectiveRecurrent high-grade gliomas are complicated cancers that require additional treatment options. Magnetic resonance-guided laser interstitial thermal therapy (MRgLITT) is a safe method for treating recurrent high-grade glioma; however, its use in China has not been reported. In this study, we aimed to investigate the safety and efficacy of an MRgLITT system (SinoVision™) developed in China for treating recurrent high-grade glioma.
methodsWe included a prospective cohort of patients with recurrent high-grade glioma treated with the Chinese MRgLITT system between March 2021 and December 2022. Clinical data, including basic information, complication rates, outcomes, and survival analyses, were collected for patients who had at least 12 months of follow-up.
results32 patients who completed a rountine follow-up period were enrolled. The estimated 1-year overall survival rate was 65.63%, including 56.52% and 88.89% patients with World Health Organization Grades IV and III gliomas, respectively. Baseline Karnofsky Performance Scale score, tumor grade and volume, and post-LITT chemo- and or radiotherapy were positive factors associated with MRgLITT for recurrent high-grade glioma outcomes. The overall complication rate was 9.38%.
conclusionThe Chinese MRgLITT system is a safe and effective treatment option for recurrent high-grade glioma. As it is a minimally invasive treatment approach that can be tailored to the individual's anatomy and physiology, MRg LITT may offer a viable alternative for patients who are not suitable candidates for conventional surgical resection.
