Long-term outcomes following primary resection of intraosseous meningiomas with concurrent cranioplasty: a population-based Swedish multicentre study.
Article in Acta neurochirurgica, 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
backgroundStudies on intraosseous meningiomas requiring cranioplasty have been scarce, and surgical outcomes thus remain poorly characterized. Using a population-based, multicentre cohort of patients who had undergone resection of intraosseous meningioma with concurrent cranioplasty, we aimed to establish long-term outcomes, as well as rates and predictors of complications and tumour recurrence.
methodAll patients who had undergone primary resection of an intraosseous meningioma with concurrent cranioplasty at four neurosurgical departments in Sweden between 2008 and 2022 were included. Data on patient demographics as well as tumour- and surgery-related data were collected retrospectively by scrutiny of medical records. Rates and predictors of surgical complications, and the composite outcome of tumour recurrence (including growth of residual tumour), were analysed using Cox regression.
resultsOf the 119 patients included, 16% experienced surgical complications requiring reoperation, 10% underwent implant explantation, and 31% developed tumour recurrence. Choice of implant material differed significantly across the participating centres but did not influence complication rates. Markers of biological aggressiveness were associated with an increased risk of surgical complications and tumour recurrence.
conclusionsSurgical complications and tumour recurrence are common following resection of intraosseous meningiomas with concurrent cranioplasty. Rather than the material used for cranial reconstruction, biological and anatomical tumour-related factors were the strongest predictors of adverse outcomes.
