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

Recent advances in our understanding of the molecular landscape of meningioma have generated new insights into the biology and heterogeneity of this disease, with demonstrated clinical value. However, there remains a need to understand tumor-intrinsic heterogeneity at single-cell resolution to inform potential therapeutic avenues. In this study, we examined the breadth of cell types and states in meningioma using a large cohort profiled with single-nuclear RNA sequencing and high-resolution spatial transcriptomics, as well as bulk DNA methylation and RNA sequencing (n = 712), bulk proteomics (n = 88) and plasma methylation (n = 59). We demonstrated that myeloid cell states differ across molecular groups of meningiomas and evolve meaningfully from dura to tumor. Myeloid cell states were also associated with unique myeloid-neoplastic interactions and neoplastic gene programs, suggesting a role in shaping the microenvironment. Finally, multiple non-neoplastic cell states refined outcome prediction beyond molecular group, suggesting a role in meningioma progression.
