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

Extracranial metastasis of glioblastoma (GBM) is an extremely rare phenomenon and is associated with a poor prognosis. Here, we present the case of a 55-year-old woman who developed pleural metastasis of GBM, manifesting non-specific breathing difficulties during treatment. This case highlights the importance of integrating multiple diagnostic approaches, as only the comparison of histopathological examination results with the patient's clinical history - right temporal lobe GBM - enabled the final diagnosis of GBM metastasis. Next-generation sequencing was performed as part of the diagnostic workup and revealed a p.G266R TP53 mutation. Additionally, imaging revealed an extensive heterogeneous lesion at the site of the previously resected GBM, which proved to be an inoperable gliosarcoma (World Health Organization grade 4). This rare presentation of GBM with distant pleural metastasis, combined with the identification of an uncommon TP53 mutation, represents a unique diagnostic and clinical challenge and underscores the novelty of this case.
