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

Meningiomas are the most common benign central nervous system tumors in adults. Meningiomas are typically categorized into three grades that reflect their aggressiveness, recurrence risk, and clinical prognosis. Although these tumors have low metastatic potential, the prognosis is significantly worse when metastases occur. Due to the scarcity of available literature on metastasis, the exact cause and treatment of metastatic disease are poorly understood. We present a rare case of a 62-year-old male with atypical meningioma with early pulmonary metastasis shortly after standard-of-care treatment, highlighting the importance of vigilant imaging surveillance in high-risk disease.
