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

Metastases from meningioma are very rare and occur predominantly in WHO grade II and III tumors, with the lungs being the most common site. The increasing use of 68Ga-DOTA-peptides PET/CT has improved the detection of primary and secondary tumor sites. This imaging modality, evaluating the tumor expression of somatostatin receptors (SSTR), not only refines the diagnostic accuracy but also can guide a subsequent peptide receptor radionuclide therapy (PRRT). We report a case of meningioma brain tumor becoming refractory after initial neurosurgery and stereotactic radiotherapy. Meningioma has progressed to lung metastases displaying high expression of SSTR, and hence suitable for PRRT.
