Discrepancy between radiological and histological findings in ganglioglioma of the optic chasm: Case report.
Article in Surgical neurology international, 2017. 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
backgroundGangliogliomas involving the optic nerve or chiasm are extremely rare tumors, which can be confused radiologically with other neoplasms. α-[ CASE DESCRIPTION: A 26-year-old man presented with visual field defects and headache, and magnetic resonance imaging demonstrated a suprasellar mass involving the optic chiasm. A biopsy and partial tumor resection were performed via an interhemispheric approach. We diagnosed the tumor as ganglioglioma (WHO grade I) involving the optic chiasm. Although this lesion was histologically benign,
conclusionThe discrepancy between radiological and histological findings implies that this new amino acid tracer PET may have a limitation in the diagnosis of gangliogliomas. Although further study is necessary, gangliogliomas should be included in the differential diagnosis of suprasellar tumors, even if PET findings show malignant features.
