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

This bibliometric study analyzes 4,861 publications on pediatric gliomas (PGs) from the Web of Science Core Collection (WoSCC) to map the field’s 60-year research trajectory. Despite recent scientific advances, the analysis of long-term trends, interdisciplinary dynamics, and comprehensive collaboration networks is still insufficient. USA leads in output, with St. Jude Children’s Research Hospital as the top institution and Childs Nervous System as the dominant journal. Pioneering authors including Bouffet Eric, Gutmann David H., Packer Roger, and Grill Jacques established foundational work guiding subsequent research. Keyword analysis identifies “Glioma” and “Children” as central themes. This study integrates the constantly evolving research frontiers and provides important insights for scholars’ future research.
