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

The frequency and duration of imaging surveillance in children and adolescents with pediatric low-grade gliomas (pLGGs) aims for the early detection of recurrence or progression. Although surveillance of pLGGs is performed routinely, it is not yet standardized. The aim of the current review is to provide a comprehensive synthesis of published studies regarding the optimal frequency, intervals, and duration of surveillance. Several key influencing factors were identified (age, the extent of resection, the tumor location, the histological type, and specific molecular characteristics). However, the lack of consistent definitions of recurrence/progression and the extent of resection meant that it was not possible to perform a meta-analysis of the data from the 18 included articles. This review highlights the need for updating the definition of these terms for uniform and global use both in routine clinical practice as well as in upcoming trials. Thus, future studies on the heterogenous group of pLGGs will allow for the better tailoring of both the frequency and duration of imaging surveillance protocols in relevant settings.
