Racial or Ethnic Disparities in Incidence, Treatment, and Prognosis of Adult Intracranial Meningiomas.
Article in Journal of racial and ethnic health disparities, 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
purposesThis study aims to explore racial or ethnic differences in incidence, treatment, and prognosis among adult intracranial meningioma patients.
methodsPatients were selected from the SEER database. Average annual age-adjusted incidence rates (AAAIRs) were calculated. Chi-square tests assessed incidence differences between females and males. Logistic and Cox regression were used to identify the impact of race or ethnicity on treatment and prognosis. Additionally, mediation analyses were performed to examine the mediating effect of socioeconomic variables.
resultsThis study enrolled 86574 patients. For non-Hispanic races, non-Hispanic Black (NHBlack) had the highest AAAIRs for grade I and II meningiomas. While for Hispanic races, Hispanic White (HWhite) had the highest AAAIRs for meningiomas of all grades. Almost all Hispanic races had lower AAAIRs compared to corresponding non-Hispanic races for meningiomas of all grades. Females had significantly higher AAAIRs than males for grade I and II meningiomas. As for treatment, compared to non-Hispanic White (NHWhite) patients, HWhite patients were more likely to receive surgery, any radiotherapy, and radiotherapy without surgery. And only NHBlack patients exhibited worse OS at 3, 12, and 60 months compared to NHWhite in full adjustment models. The mediation analyses showed that marital status, median household income, and rural-urban continuum code partially mediate the association between race and survival.
conclusionsRacial or ethnic disparities exist in the incidence, treatment, and survival of adult intracranial meningioma patients. Further studies are needed to understand racial or ethnic differences and improve prognosis for all meningioma patients.
