Image defined risk factor(s) and outcomes for abdominal neuroblastoma: a surgical perspective from a Thailand National Cancer Centre.
Article in Pediatric surgery international, 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
purposeTo evaluate the impact of IDRFs on surgical outcomes, complications, and survival in abdominal neuroblastoma (ANB).
methodRetrospective study of patients (< 15 years) with ANB stage L2 or higher treated over two decades at a university centre in Thailand.
resultsAmong fifty patients, 94% had high-risk neuroblastoma. Preoperative tumour encasement of the celiac axis (CA) or origin of SMA was more frequent in incomplete resection (33% vs. 9%, p = 0.04). Complications were greater in children with abdominal aorta/IVC tumour encasement (58% vs. 27%, p < 0.03) and adjacent organ infiltrative tumours (42% vs. 7%, p < 0.04). Visceral organ injuries correlated with vascular/infiltrating IDRFs. Tumours invading CA/SMA carried less risk (%) of vascular injury (r =- 0.28, p = 0.04). Only tumour encasement of the SMA at the mesenteric root predicted disease progression (r = 0.35, p = 0.01). Incomplete resection was associated with higher risks (%) of disease progression. Two- and five-year survival rates were 80.6% and 52.1%, respectively.
conclusionVascular IDRFs especially mesenteric root encasement were linked to risk of visceral organ injury and disease progression. Awareness of risks may reduce vascular injury during operation though incomplete resection influenced disease progression. Survival outcomes are comparable to Southeast Asia Regions.
