How I do it: > 8 Carmustine wafer implantation during supra-marginal resection of a glioblastoma, IDH-wildtype.
Article in Acta neurochirurgica, 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
backgroundThe maximal safe resection of glioblastoma, IDH-wildtype often creates a large resection cavity that can accommodate more than eight Carmustine implants.
methodWe detail the implantation technique of 13 Carmustine wafers within the surgical bed after a right hippocampal formation-sparing anterior temporal lobectomy allowing for the supra-marginal resection of a glioblastoma IDH-wildtype in an adult patient.
conclusionCarmustine wafer implantation is a safe and efficient technique following surgical resection of a glioblastoma, IDH-wildtype. Sequential technical steps are required to improve the safety and the efficacy of Carmustine wafer implantation. More than eight Carmustine wafers could be implanted in large surgical cavities with survival benefits for the patients.
