Multifocal Tumefactive Demyelination Mimicking Intracranial Neoplasm.
Article in Journal of clinical and diagnostic research : JCDR, 2016. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 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
Demyelinating disease presenting with clinical and radiologic features similar to a brain tumour is referred to as tumefactive demyelination. These lesions pose considerable diagnostic uncertainty. This is partly due to the atypical neurologic symptoms that the patient can present with as a consequence of the size, location, and potential for associated mass effect and oedema. The MRI appearance of these lesions can aid in preoperative diagnosis and assist with the final pathologic interpretation. We report a case of tumefactive demyelination where MRI played a vital role in arriving at a diagnosis. The diagnosis was confirmed histopathologically.
