Suprasellar epithelioid hemangioendothelioma: Case report and review of the literature.
Article in Surgical neurology international, 2016. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 4 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
backgroundEpithelioid hemangioendothelioma (EHE) is a rare sarcoma of vascular origin, which is clinically and histologically intermediate between benign hemangioma and angiosarcoma. It is most commonly found in the liver, lung, and bone, however, 46 intracranial cases have been reported in the literature, of which this is the fifth reported suprasellar tumor. CASE DESCRIPTION: A 45-year-old woman developed progressive lethargy, somnolence, and memory decline over the course of 6 months. On computed tomography (CT), she was found to have a large hypothalamic mass and underwent subtotal resection via a bifrontal craniotomy.
conclusionsWhile primary intracranial EHE is an uncommon presentation of a rare tumor, the suprasellar region does not seem to be an unusual location when it does occur. Prognosis is generally good, and may be better for primary intracranial disease than that for EHE originating elsewhere. Surgery is the first line of therapy, with variable benefit from adjuvant chemotherapy or radiation when total resection is not possible. Chemotherapeutic approaches in current use are directed at preventing endothelial proliferation.
