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

Background: Polymorphous low-grade neuroepithelial tumor of the young (PLNTY) is a newly recognized entity first described in 2017. This article reports the clinical, radiological, histological, and molecular characteristics of PLNTY diagnosed in a young female. Case Description: A 20-year-old female, not known to have any medical illness, presented to the emergency department with speech arrest that progressed to generalized tonic-clonic seizures. Brain magnetic resonance imaging showed a T2 hyperintense nonenhancing cortical-based heterogeneous mass in the left medial temporal lobe and adjacent inferior temporal gyrus measuring 2.7 × 2 × 2.5 cm with no susceptibility signal or diffusion restriction. Electroencephalogram (EEG) showed left temporal epileptiform discharges. She underwent left frontotemporal craniotomy and tumor resection. The light microscopic examination of the tumor revealed a low-grade infiltrative neoplasm. There was a classical appearance of round cells with perinuclear halo, immunopositive for olig-2, glial fibrillary acidic protein ( Conclusion: This article reports an additional case of PLNTY, a newly defined central nervous system tumor entity, describing its clinical, radiological, histological, and molecular features.
