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

Myxoid glioneuronal tumor (MGT) is a newly delineated CNS WHO grade 1 neoplasm genetically characterized by PDGFRA p.K385L/I mutation. We describe a 14-year-old boy presenting with gelastic seizures caused by an intraventricular MGT. Intraoperative frozen section allowed minimal resection, preserving surrounding eloquent structures. Histology showed oligodendrocyte-like cells within myxoid stroma and scattered floating neurons, while molecular analysis revealed the canonical PDGFRA p.K385L mutation. At 13-month follow-up, the residual tumor remained stable without any further neurological dysfunction. This case highlights the importance of intraoperative diagnosis for surgical safety in MGT.
