Thirty-Five Years of the Korean Brain Tumor Society (1991-2026) : A Historical Review.
Article in Journal of Korean Neurosurgical Society, 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
The Korean Brain Tumor Society (KBTS) was established in 1991 as the Korean Brain Tumor Study Group and has since evolved into a leading multidisciplinary academic organization in neuro-oncology. In its early phase, the society focused on building essential academic infrastructure, including the initiation of a nationwide brain tumor registry in 1992 and the implementation of structured educational programs. In 1999, this organization was renamed the Korean Brain Tumor Society, reflecting its expanding academic scope. In 2002, the KBTS launched the Journal of Korean Brain Tumor Society, establishing an official platform for scholarly communication. During the 2000s, the society expanded its academic and international engagement through scientific meetings-including the 2nd Meeting of the Asian Society for Neuro-Oncology (ASNO) in 2003 and the 7th ASNO Meeting in 2010-regional collaborations, and its admission to the Korean Academy of Medical Sciences in 2007. A major transition occurred in 2011 when its official journal, which was subsequently relaunched in 2013 as Brain Tumor Research and Treatment (BTRT), was integrated with the Journal of Korean Society for Neuro-Oncology, marking a strategic step toward internationalization. In 2018, the publication of the comprehensive textbook "Brain Tumors" further strengthened the society's academic foundation. In 2020, despite the challenges posed by the coronavirus disease 2019 pandemic, the KBTS maintained continuity through adaptive academic activities and the development of clinical recommendations. In 2022, the society successfully hosted the World Federation of Neuro-Oncology Societies in Seoul, underscoring its growing global leadership. This trajectory culminated in 2025, with the indexing of BTRT in Scopus, representing a significant milestone in international academic recognition. Over the past 35 years, the KBTS has made substantial contributions to research, education, and international collaboration while advancing clinical practice and surgical management through multicenter studies and the dissemination of operative strategies.
