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

A three-year-four-month-old boy with primary disseminated medulloblastoma M3 stage and secondary occlusive hydrocephalus underwent an endoscopic triventriculocisternostomy (ETVC) and tumor biopsy, followed by ventriculoperitoneal shunt (VPS) placement due to ETVC failure. The treatment regimen, which included intensive induction chemotherapy, proton beam therapy (PBT), and maintenance chemotherapy, led to significant clinical improvement and a complete radiological response. Four years post-treatment, the child remains in remission, illustrating the effectiveness of a multimodal approach in managing complex cases of medulloblastoma in pediatric patients.
