Multiplanar MRI approach to the differential diagnosis of central nervous system tumors and tumor-like lesions in patients with HIV: what radiologists need to know.
Review in Frontiers in medicine, 2026. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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.
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
HIV infection involves a wide range of diseases that affect the central nervous system (CNS). This variability makes diagnosing cerebral diseases difficult, especially when a tumor is unrelated to HIV. This review analyzes verified cases of CNS tumors and tumor-like lesions in HIV-positive patients. It focuses on original neuroimaging features for differential diagnosis. Given that cerebral pathology of any etiology frequently manifests as depressed consciousness and sometimes progressses to coma, the application of multiparametric magnetic resonance imaging (mpMRI) is essential for accurate diagnosis when the patient's clinical history or physical examination results are limited. Herein, we discuss the specific neuroimaging patterns that have significant practical value for clinicians and radiologists. A correct diagnosis of a brain lesion is necessary to select proper treatment strategies, thus reducing mortality.
