Gliofibromas (including malignant forms), and gliosarcomas: a comparative study and review of the literature.
Review in Acta neuropathologica, 1993. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 14 papers.
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
The presence of connective tissue elements in gliomas necessitates in every case a thorough analysis of the character and derivation of such elements to allow the formulation of an appropriate diagnosis. Four cases are presented in this paper. In cases 1 and 2 (anaplastic astrocytomas in two children, 9 and 4 years old, respectively) all the neoplastic elements were astrocytes and their ability to produce or indirectly promote the production of reticulin and collagen fibers accounted for the presence of such elements in close association with the tumor cells. The term "gliofibroma" has been coined for such tumors, but "desmoplastic astrocytoma", (low grade or anaplastic) or in highly malignant cases "desmoplastic glioblastoma", as the case may be, also seem to be appropriate terms for such neoplasms. In contrast, cases 3 and 4 represented composite tumors in adults (66 and 58 years old, respectively) and the neoplasms of these patients consisted of glioblastoma and sarcoma, the latter component demonstrably being of vascular origin. This is the type of tumor usually referred to as gliosarcoma or "Feigin tumor". Although some apparent similarities between the two groups may exist at times, the histogenesis of the latter group's sarcomatous or sarcoma-like portions is different from that of the first group and, therefore, warrants separate diagnostic terms and placement in brain tumor classification.
