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

Medullary ganglioglioma (GG) is an exceptionally rare tumor of the central nervous system, and its early diagnostic markers and prognostic indicators remain poorly defined. In this multi-center retrospective study, we reviewed 13 cases of histopathologically confirmed medullary GG to investigate their magnetic resonance imaging characteristics and assess the potential correlation between imaging features and
