The problem
Intervention: Multimodality treatment including neurosurgery, chemotherapy, radiation therapy, and multidisciplinary team coordination with attention to palliative care and fertility issues
Who it was tested with: 29 children under 15 years old diagnosed with CNS tumors between 2001 and 2019.
Experience from people who deliver programmes: stories, case studies and lessons learned. Valuable for understanding how and why, and for spotting what to test next, but not a measure of effect.
"We retrospectively reviewed 29 patients (under 15 years old) diagnosed as CNS tumors with total of 43 tumor surgeries between January 2001 and December 2019." This represents a retrospective case series documenting outcomes following multimodality treatment, which is the lowest evidence tier as it lacks a comparison group and relies on retrospective data collection.
Retrospective design without comparison group; small sample size; heterogeneous tumor types with no stratified analysis; 2 patients lost to follow-up; no detailed information on treatment-related toxicities or specific causes of death.
