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

purposeChoroid plexus papilloma (CPP) and atypical choroid plexus papilloma (aCPP) have excellent outcomes. However, some CPP/aCPP relapse and may qualify for postoperative adjuvant treatment.

methodsGerman patients from the International CPT-SIOP Registry diagnosed with CPP/aCPP between 2011 and 2023 were included and analysed according to initial staging (postoperative residual tumor [R+], metastases [M+]), biology, postoperative treatment strategy and outcome. Additionally, patients from the published CPT-SIOP-2000 trial (PMID34997889) were combined with the registry cohort for validation purpose.

resultsNinety-three patients were identified (male: n = 53, female: n = 40). Median age at diagnosis was 1.9 (0.1–17.6) years. Initial staging was R0/M0 in n = 61, R+/M0 in n = 24, R0/M + in n = 5 and R+/M + in n = 3. aCPP was diagnosed in n = 38 patients. Molecular subgroup was available for n = 36: ”adult” n = 3, “pediatric A” n = 21 and “pediatric B” n = 12 (6/12 aCPP). Median follow-up was 5.5 (± 0.99) years. Twelve tumors relapsed: R0/M0 n = 4, R+/M0 n = 7, R+/M + n = 1. One patient with relapse died. Most patients did not receive postoperative treatment (n = 88). Five patients (R0/M + n = 2; R+/M + n = 1; R0/M0 n = 2) received postoperative chemotherapy. None was irradiated during first-line treatment. In the enlarged cohort (n = 197), histological diagnosis had a significant impact on PFS (5y-PFS: CPP 90 ± 3.1, aCPP 78.6 ± 4.6, PFS = 0.01). Both, R+ (5y-PFS: R0 90.6 ± 2.6, R + 69.1 ± 7.0, PFS = 0.01) as well as molecular subgroup “pediatric B” (5y-PFS: pediatric A 95.2%±3.3%, pediatric B: 69.5 ± 8.6%, PFS = 0.02), were associated with inferior PFS, especially in aCPP.

conclusionIncomplete resection and biology impact on PFS especially in aCPP. These results extend the evidence for current stratification and treatment strategies.
