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

backgroundMedulloblastoma is similar to other common tumors in the posterior cranial fossa of children in terms of the onset and clinical manifestations. Still, its main treatment methods, surgical methods and prognosis are quite different. Therefore, there is an urgent need for finding biomarkers for differential diagnosis. PURPOSE: The purpose of this study was to identify new lipids and differential metabolic pathways by analyzing the significantly different lipids present in the plasma of children with medulloblastoma in comparison to those with other intracranial tumors.

methodsIn this study, 35 patients with medulloblastoma and 32 matched controls were enrolled. Plasma samples and medical records were collected, and untargeted lipidomics analyses were performed using UHPLC-MS/MS.

resultsA total of 97 differential lipids in the plasma of children with medulloblastoma were identified. Seven differential lipids could be potentially useful in medulloblastoma detection and a diagnostic model was established. The metabolic pathway analysis showed that there were significant differences in patients with medulloblastoma in terms of glycerophospholipid metabolism metabolism, sphingolipid metabolism and linoleic acid metabolism pathways.

conclusionThe difference in plasma lipid markers between medulloblastoma and other intracranial tumors screened in this study may be useful to support and improve the differential diagnosis of medulloblastoma in children.
