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

DOTATATE (1,4,7,10-tetraazacyclododecane-1,4,7,10-tetraacetic acid [DOTA]-octreotate) is a compound that binds somatostatin receptors seen in tumors such as meningiomas. Here, we present a case of a patient with progressive bilateral ophthalmoplegia due to meningiomatosis involving both cavernous sinuses, which was highlighted by DOTATATE imaging. Some studies have shown DOTATATE imaging is superior to contrast-enhanced magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) in identifying extent of intraosseous meningioma growth, which has been associated with worse prognosis. DOTATATE imaging should be considered in cases of unknown diagnosis of mass lesions and lesions that are in areas not easily accessible to biopsy, such as the cavernous sinuses.
