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

backgroundWe aimed to evaluate the correlation between postoperative seizures (POS) and overall survival in patients with newly diagnosed supratentorial isocitrate dehydrogenase (IDH)-wild glioblastoma treated with radiotherapy plus concomitant and adjuvant temozolomide.

methodsThis study included 122 patients with newly diagnosed supratentorial IDH-wild glioblastoma who were treated at our hospital between May 2007 and September 2022. Seizures occurring within 7 days after surgery were defined as immediate POS (iPOS). Moreover, seizures from the 8th day after the surgery were defined as delayed POS (dPOS).

resultsThe median follow-up period and median survival time (MST) from surgery in the entire cohort were 19.3 and 20.4 months, respectively. The rates of iPOS and dPOS in this study were 6.6% (n=8) and 38.5% (n=47), respectively. The MST of patients with iPOS and without iPOS was 27.6 and 20 months, respectively. There was no significant difference between with iPOS and without iPOS. The median time to onset of dPOS was 126 days after surgery. The MST of patients with dPOS and without dPOS was 25.9 and 18.4 months, respectively. Patients with dPOS showed significantly longer survival than those without dPOS (

conclusionAmong patients with newly diagnosed supratentorial IDH-wild glioblastoma, the prognosis of patients with seizures in the postoperative course was better than that of patients without dPOS.
