Prolactinoma associated with an ependymoma in the fourth ventricle: A case report and review of the literature.

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
Pituitary adenoma associated with ependymoma in the fourth ventricle is a rare condition. In the present study, a 46-year-old man diagnosed with prolactinoma, who previously underwent two surgical procedures (one for the removal of a primary tumor and a second following its recurrence) developed a complication of ependymoma in the fourth ventricle. The presence of the ependymoma was confirmed by pathological analysis and the patient recovered well following two-phase surgical resection of the two tumors. The present study compared the probable cause of concurrent pituitary adenoma and ependymoma within the fourth ventricle with previous relevant studies. These comparisons were used to propose possible genomic and endocrine contributions for the development of the ependymoma from the pituitary adenoma.
