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
Background: To explore the altered malignant behavior, prognosis and survival of glioblastoma in contact with Subventricular Zone (SVZ) and independent predictors on patients' overall survival. Method: The records of 131 patients with supratentorial primary glioblastoma who underwent surgery at our hospital between 2012 and 2018 were reviewed retrospectively. The authors reviewed preoperative MRI images and divided patients into two groups: Glioblastoma not in contact with SVZ (G-SVZ) and glioblastoma in contact with SVZ (G + SVZ). They computed and compared the overall survival (OS) of these two groups using the Kaplan-Meier method. The correlation between G + SVZ and OS was investigated using the Cox Proportional Hazard Ratio Model. Results: The median progression-free survival (PFS) of the patient was 10 months (Interquartile Range), and the median OS was 13 months. At six months and one year, the OS was 81 percent and 51.1 percent, respectively. Patients with G + SVZ and G-SVZ had a median OS of 12 months and 15 months, respectively (p = 0.0093). According to Cox Multivariate model, repeat surgery (p = 0.001), among other independent predictors, including age ≥60, Karnofsky Performance Score (KPS) < 70, and extent of resection (Subtotal/biopsy vs total resection), had the strongest associated decreased OS. G + SVZ independently correlated significantly with reduced patient survival (p = 0.014). Conclusion: Repeat surgery had the strongest association with decreased OS among the independent predictors of survival in patients with G + SVZ lesions. Prospective studies about molecular mechanisms are needed to explain why G + SVZ lesions are thought to be aggressive and associated with a poor prognosis.
