High-grade astrocytoma with piloid features: a case report of comprehensive management.
Article in Frontiers in oncology, 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
High-grade astrocytoma with piloid features (HGAP) is a rare and recently defined nervous system tumor. To date, clinical reports and therapeutic experience regarding HGAP remain scarce. Herein, we describe a 35-year-old female patient presenting with progressive numbness in the right neck and shoulder region for 2 months. Imaging examinations revealed an intramedullary tumor at the cervicomedullary junction. Histopathological analysis confirmed anaplastic glioma, and DNA methylation profiling established the diagnosis of HGAP. The patient subsequently underwent surgical resection combined with adjuvant radiotherapy and concomitant temozolomide chemotherapy. This tumor commonly occurs in the posterior cranial fossa of adults. In this report, we aim to present the clinical course of an extremely rare case of high-grade astrocytoma with piloid features (HGAP) that developed radiological progression in the early postoperative period, and to explore the clinical significance of this atypical manifestation.
