A 40-year-old male with an intraventricular tumor. Combined tanycytic ependymoma and subependymoma.
Article in Brain pathology (Zurich, Switzerland), 2013. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 5 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
Combined tumors showing histologic features of both ependymoma and subependymoma have been described. In this report we present a case of combined tanycytic ependymoma with foci of subependymoma (WHO grade II), occurring in a 40 year-old male, which arose in the wall of the lateral ventricle. The tanycytic ependymoma component showed elongated fibrillary cells with a fascicular pattern of growth, while the subependymoma component showed clustered cell bodies surrounded by a fibrillary stroma with a microcystic appearance.We consider the present case to be an unusual example of tanycytic ependymoma; which to the best of our knowledge has not been associated with a subependymoma.
