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

Telomere maintenance mechanisms (TMM) have garnered attention as a mechanism associated with the treatment resistance and poor prognosis of neuroblastoma (NB). Ganglioneuroblastoma (GNB) and ganglioneuroma (GN) are histologically classified as neuroblastic tumors (NTs) along with NB; however, few reports have addressed TMM in GNB and GN. The present study analyzed 321 NTs diagnosed in Japan, including 255 NB cases, 48 GNB cases and 18 GN cases, using a quantitative PCR-based C-circle assay for alternative lengthening of telomeres (ALT) and a telomerase reverse transcriptase (
