Evidence and narrative quality appraisal.

No. Study Design Principal limitation Narrative evidence strength
1 Lee et al. Consensus guidance Foundational standardized grading; consensus-based rather than comparative effectiveness evidence Moderate–high contextual authority
2 Fatahichegeni et al. Review Broad recent synthesis; dependent on included literature and review methods Contextual review evidence
3 Ruff et al. Focused review Neurologist-oriented practical synthesis; not comparative Contextual review evidence
4 Garfall et al. Implementation review Operationally useful outpatient roadmap; center/resource dependent Consensus/implementation evidence
5 Bayly-McCredie et al. Systematic review Aggregates clinical trials; heterogeneity and trial-selection limitations Systematic-review level
6 Fonseca et al. Meta-analysis Large aggregate safety context; trial heterogeneity and indirect workflow evidence Meta-analysis level
7 Cook et al. Meta-analysis CNS lymphoma safety context; small heterogeneous cohorts Meta-analysis with imprecision
8 He et al. Clinical cohort/trial Direct CNS-involved population; product- and setting-specific Limited–moderate clinical evidence
9 Shalabi et al. Prospective pediatric/AYA study Detailed phenotype; limited generalizability to adults/products Preliminary prospective evidence
10 Guo et al. Pharmacovigilance study Large real-world signal detection; reporting and denominator bias Signal-generating observational evidence
11 Suresh et al. Prospective pilot Sensitive serial testing and predictive signal; small pilot requiring validation Preliminary pilot evidence
12 Wesley et al. Observational EEG series Direct EEG characterization; selected treated population and small sample Limited observational evidence
13 Gust et al. Pediatric EEG study Prospective physiologic correlations; pediatric/product-specific Limited prospective evidence
14 Hernani et al. Observational EEG study Baseline association with severity; nonrandomized and modest sample Limited observational evidence
15 Storci et al. Biomarker study Novel predictive candidate; requires external clinical validation Exploratory biomarker evidence
16 Sweiss et al. Real-world cohort Exposure–toxicity association; confounding and product specificity Moderate observational evidence
17 Abramson et al. Phase 3 trial Robust product safety context; workflow not primary endpoint High product-context evidence
18 D’Souza et al. Phase 1 trial Direct early safety data; small, noncomparative dose-escalation study Early-phase evidence
19 Mohan et al. Real-world cohort Multicenter practical safety context; retrospective confounding Moderate observational evidence
20 Dima et al. Real-world cohort Academic-center experience; selection and retrospective limitations Limited–moderate observational evidence
21 Lutfi et al. Case-based report Highlights rare severe refractory toxicity; cannot estimate incidence Case-level safety signal
22 Kowalski et al. Real-world prophylaxis cohort Operationally relevant association; no randomized control Limited–moderate observational evidence
23 Cohen et al. CARTITUDE cohort analysis Program-level delayed toxicity signal; product-specific Moderate observational safety evidence
24 Schroeder et al. Case report Rare delayed phenotype; no generalizable frequency or causality Case-report-level evidence
25 Khoudari et al. Case report Severe delayed safety signal; no incidence inference Case-report-level evidence
26 Wirk and Lim Case report Therapeutically informative single observation; efficacy unproven Case-report-level evidence only
27 Alqaisi et al. Scoping review Broad neurologic disease context; complementary rather than part of original 26 Scoping-review context
