The pseudocapsule surrounding a pituitary adenoma and its clinical significance.
Review in Journal of neuro-oncology, 2011. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 17 papers, 1 of them a synthesis that pooled 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.
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
The transsphenoidal approach is currently considered the preferred first-line treatment for pituitary adenoma. With the discovery and application of the pseudocapsule surrounding a pituitary adenoma, transsphenoidal surgery of pituitary adenoma further falls into two categories: "extracapsular" and traditional "intracapsular" resection methods, on the basis of where dissection is performed with respect to the pseudocapsule. Thus, the pseudocapsule can be used as a plane to guide the operation, helps in total resection of pituitary adenoma, and can guide subsequent treatment after surgery.
