Brain compression without global neuronal loss in meningiomas: whole-brain proton MR spectroscopy report of 2 cases.
Article in AJNR. American journal of neuroradiology, 2005. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 6 papers.
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.
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
We report the findings from whole-brain proton MR spectroscopy, quantifying the neuronal marker N-acetylaspartate (NAA), for 2 presurgical meningioma patients and 10 healthy controls. The patients' whole-brain NAA (WBNAA) concentrations were considerably elevated (3+ SDs) compared with healthy controls when excluding the tumors from brain volume; WBNAA levels normalized following correction to approximate "preneoplastic" brain size. These results suggest global neuronal preservation in these 2 patients while their brains were compressed by large, slowly growing, extra-axial masses.
