Computed tomography and magnetic resonance imaging findings of intrasellar schwannoma: A case report and literature review.
Article in Oncology letters, 2016. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 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
Intrasellar schwannoma is extremely rare, and only a few cases have been reported in the literature to date. In the present study, the clinical, radiological and pathological features of a 50-year-old male patient with primary intrasellar schwannoma are presented. The patient presented with decreased visual acuity, and a subsequent computed tomography (CT) scan revealed a giant well-demarcated intrasellar mass with suprasellar extension, without cavernous sinus invasion. The lesion was slightly hyperdense with heterogeneous enhancement. On magnetic resonance imaging (MRI), the mass was isointense on T1 weighted images (WI), and slightly hyperintense on T2WI, with significant heterogeneous enhancement. Previous literature was reviewed to summarize the CT and MRI characteristics of intrasellar schwannoma. Despite the rarity of this tumor, intrasellar schwannoma must be included in the differential diagnosis of intrasellar lesions.
