Desmoplastic supratentorial neuroepithelial tumours of childhood: imaging in 5 patients.
Article in Neuroradiology, 1996. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 4 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
Desmoplastic neuroepithelial tumours are rare supratentorial neoplasms of infancy with a favourable prognosis. We characterised their imaging findings by reviewing the clinical and radiological reports of five affected children. The tumours were massive, predominantly cystic and with preferential frontal and parietal lobe involvement. The cystic component was in the white matter, with no communication with the ventricle. The solid part was superficially, abutting a meningeal surface, and showed intense contrast enhancement. A heterogeneous predominantly solid mass was observed in one patient. Thinning and deformation of the skull adjacent to the tumour was shown in four cases. Peritumoral oedema was absent or moderate. No calcification or haemorrhage were present. Angiography showed a tumour blush from the internal or external carotid arteries in one case each. Follow-up (3 months-9 years, mean 4.5 years) showed no recurrence.
