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: Craniopharyngiomas are rare parasellar tumors, and papillary craniopharyngiomas (PCPs) represent 8 to 20% of cases. Design: Interim analysis of retrospective data collected from the Registry of Adenomas of the Pituitary and Related Disorders (RAPID). Setting: Fourteen U.S.-based academic skull base centers between 2011 and 2023. Participants: Patients with PCPs. Main Outcome Measures: Demographic, imaging, surgical, and outcome variables. Results: Ninety-nine patients with PCPs were included. The mean age was 51.8 ± 14.7, and 57.6% were male. Most tumors showed mixed cystic/solid components (67.5%), were transinfundibular (50.0%), and were treated with an endoscopic endonasal approach (74.5%), with 51.1% demonstrating gross total resection (GTR). Pituitary stalk was preserved in 51.9%. Permanent arginine vasopressin deficiency was seen in 67.1% and was associated with pituitary stalk sacrifice ( Conclusions: RAPID consortium enabled the largest real-world clinical information dataset for PCPs. Early findings support that GTR and stalk preservation are important to outcomes. Iterative analysis and discussion of data led to the generation of a framework for future studies to fully leverage the capabilities of multicenter registries.
