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

purpose of reviewChronic complications of brain tumors and brain tumor treatments can lead to impairment of health-related quality of life and decreased functionality. These largely include cognitive decline, fatigue, headache, seizures, and secondary malignancies. Outpatient neurologists are an integral part of the multidisciplinary neuro-oncology team who help diagnose and manage chronic complications in this complex patient population. Timely diagnosis and treatment of these complications in outpatient neurology and neuro-oncology clinics helps improve quality of life and survival of brain tumor patients. RECENT

findingsWe discuss updated information and management regarding various chronic neurologic complications among neuro-oncology patients. Understanding of chronic neurologic complications associated with central nervous system tumors and with common contemporary cancer treatments will facilitate neurologists management of these patient populations. While there are aspects analogous to the diagnosis and management in the non-oncologic population, a number of unique features discussed in this review should be considered.
