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

backgroundThe incidence and prognosis of high-grade gliomas differ according to histopathological and molecular features. The WHO 2021 CNS classification emphasized IDH status, but historical cohorts often lacked systematic molecular profiling.

methodsWe conducted a retrospective population-based study including adult patients diagnosed with IDH-wildtype glioblastoma or IDH-mutant astrocytoma in a Spanish tertiary center (2011-2021). Incidence trends and survival outcomes were analyzed according to treatment modality and sex.

resultsA total of 1057 patients were included: 530 (50.1%) with IDH-wildtype glioblastoma and 137 (13%) with IDH-mutant astrocytoma. Incidence of both subtypes significantly increased during the study period (

conclusionsIDH-wildtype glioblastoma shows persistently poor outcomes despite increasing incidence, while IDH-mutant astrocytoma demonstrates better survival, particularly in male patients and those receiving multimodal therapy. These findings reflect real-world practice and provide epidemiological and survival data from Southern Europe to guide future clinical and public health strategies.
