Pleomorphic xanthoastrocytoma with malignant transformation and multiple recurrences in an Iranian girl.
Article in BMJ case reports, 2012. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 8 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
Pleomorphic xanthoastrocytoma (PXA) is a rare astrocytic tumour of the brain. Some PXAs are accompanied by anaplastic features and are difficult to manage because of frequent recurrences that lead to early death. Well-documented cases of malignant transformation in PXA and of anaplastic PXA are rare in the literature. The authors report a case of PXA with malignant transformation in the right temporo occipital lobe in a 13-year-old Iranian girl.
