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

Background: Intraventricular cerebral metastases are rare. Collision tumors comprising metastatic carcinoma with a meningiomatous component are exceptional, particularly within the ventricular system. Case Description: A 79-year-old female with a history of endometrial serous carcinoma presented with progressive cognitive decline and gait instability. Magnetic resonance imaging demonstrated a large left occipital mass with intraventricular extension and surrounding edema. She underwent resection. Histopathology showed a papillary tumor consistent with metastatic high-grade serous carcinoma, and within the specimen, a discrete meningiomatous focus was identified, compatible with a collision tumor. Postoperatively, she recovered without new deficits. Conclusion: This case highlights an uncommon intraventricular collision tumor formed by metastatic high-grade serous carcinoma and an incidental meningiomatous component, underscoring the importance of thorough sampling and immunohistochemistry for ventricular masses in oncologic patients.
