Contemporary Patterns of Care for Low-Grade Glioma in Australia and New Zealand.

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
aimThe management of low-grade gliomas (LGGs) is evolving with new insights into disease biology. Furthermore, recently, the phase III INDIGO
methodsAn online survey examining respondents' practice setting, caseload, and preferred treatment approach to three clinical scenarios was distributed through the Cooperative Trials Group for Neuro-Oncology, New Zealand Aotearoa Neuro-Oncology Society, and the Australian and New Zealand Society for Neuropathology in December 2023 with three reminders in April, June, and September of 2024.
resultsThe survey response rate was 19.6% (57/291), 87.7% from Australia, and 12.3% from New Zealand, spanning medical oncology (45.7%), pathology (22.8%), radiation oncology (17.5%), and neurosurgery (14.0%). Case 1 examined an IDH-mutant grade 2 astrocytoma following gross total resection. Observation alone was recommended by 93%. Case 2 examined an incompletely resected IDH-mutant grade 2 astrocytoma. If feasible, 38% recommended further surgery and 83% adjuvant chemotherapy and radiotherapy. After 12 months of disease stability, 53% of the respondents preferred vorasidenib over the existing therapies. Case 3 examined an incompletely resected IDH-mutant grade 3 oligodendroglioma. No respondents recommended observation alone, with 26% recommending salvage surgery and 97% recommending further chemotherapy and radiotherapy.
conclusionsThis study describes current management practices for LGGs in Australia and New Zealand, showing ongoing variation and a cautious approach to integrating IDH inhibitors. This highlights the critical role of multidisciplinary team-based decision-making in increasingly complex clinical situations.
