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

Medulloblastoma (MB) comprises four broad molecular subgroups, namely wingless (WNT), sonic hedgehog (SHH), Group 3, and Group 4, respectively, with subgroup-specific developmental origins, unique genetic profiles, distinct clinico-demographic characteristics, and diverse clinical outcomes. This is a retrospective audit of clinical outcomes in molecularly confirmed WNT-MB patients treated with maximal safe resection followed by postoperative standard-of-care risk-stratified adjuvant radio(chemo)therapy at a tertiary-care comprehensive cancer centre. Of the 74 WNT-MB patients registered in a neuro-oncology unit between 2004 to 2020, 7 patients accrued on a prospective clinical trial of treatment deintensification were excluded, leaving 67 patients that constitute the present study cohort. The median age at presentation was 12 years, with a male preponderance (2:1). The survival analysis was restricted to 61 patients and excluded 6 patients (1 postoperative mortality plus 5 without adequate details of treatment or outcomes). At a median follow-up of 72 months, Kaplan-Meier estimates of 5-year progression-free survival and overall survival were 87.7% and 91.2%, respectively. Traditional high-risk features, large residual tumour (≥1.5 cm
