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

Preservation of the perforating arteries (PAs) supplying the pyramidal tract (PT-PAs) is essential during glioblastoma resection. A 60-year-old man presented with sensory aphasia caused by a left medial temporal glioblastoma. To determine the surgical indication and strategy, we assessed the tumor's location and its relationship with the PT-PAs using intra-arterial computed tomography (CT) angiography combined with ultra-high-resolution CT (UHR-IA-CTA), gadolinium-enhanced T1-weighted magnetic resonance imaging, and tractography. Imaging revealed an amygdala glioblastoma without the involvement of PT-PAs. Total tumor resection was achieved without neurological deficits. This case highlights how integrating UHR-IA-CTA can guide surgical planning and enable safe, complete glioblastoma resection.
