Meningiomas-Related Epilepsy After Surgery.
Article in Cancers, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
backgroundMeningioma-related epilepsy (MRE) is observed in approximately 30% of patients. Although studies focus on identifying risk factors related to pre- and postoperative MRE, there is no clear evidence regarding the timing for discontinuing antiseizure medications (ASMs) after surgical resection.
methodsWe retrospectively collected data from a series of naïve supratentorial meningiomas treated with surgical resection. Preoperative MRI was used to calculate the meningioma and peritumoral edema (PE) volumes through a voxel-based system. We analyzed the frequency of pre- and postoperative epilepsy in the group of meningiomas with and without perilesional edema (with PE > 1 cm
resultsFrom a clinical series of 507 patients, we included 128 who underwent surgical resection in our center between January 2020 and December 2022, with a mean follow-up of 30.1 ± 19.8 months. Surgical treatment had a curative effect on MRE (41.4% preoperative vs. 19.5% postoperative;
conclusionsPE increases the likelihood of MRE resolution with surgery. Our results show that surgical resection directly impacts MRE and ASM discontinuation in the presence of preoperative PE. The PE is a reassuring factor in decision-making regarding the timing of ASM discontinuation after surgery.
