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

To investigate the value of preoperative MRI features and ADC histogram analysis for evaluating tumor-infiltrating CD8+ T cells in meningiomas. In this single-center cross-sectional study, we conducted a retrospective analysis of clinical, imaging, and pathological data from 84 patients with meningioma and performed immunohistochemical staining to quantitatively evaluate CD8+ T cells. Using X-Tile software, we divided the patients into high-and low-CD8+ T cells groups based on cut-off values. Furthermore, we compared the clinical and MRI features between the two groups and assessed the predictive value of significant parameters by plotting ROC curves. Additionally, Spearman's analysis was used to examine the association between ADC histogram parameters and CD8+ T cells. The level of tumor-infiltrating CD8+ T cells was found to have a negative correlation with recurrence in patients with meningiomas (r=-0.235, p = 0.031). No statistically significant differences were found in clinical and conventional MRI features between the two groups (all p > 0.05). Conversely, among the ADC histogram parameters, the coefficient of variation (CV), Perc.01, Perc.05, Perc.10, and Perc.25 showed statistically significant differences between the two groups (all p < 0.05) and combined ADC histogram parameters had the highest AUC (0.791; 95%CI (0.689-0.872)). Additionally, we observed a positive correlation between Perc.01, Perc.05, Perc.10 and CD8+ T cells (p < 0.05), the CV and variance was negatively correlated with the levels of CD8+ T cells (p < 0.05). ADC histogram analysis can be used as an imaging tool to preoperatively assess CD8+ T cells in patients with meningioma, and found a certain correlation between them.
