"Pure" Suprasellar Schwannoma Presented with Communicating Hydrocephalus: A Case Report.
Article in NMC case report journal, 2017. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper.
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
Schwannoma is a benign peripheral nerve sheath tumor originating from Schwann cells. Most intracranial schwannomas arise from vestibular nerve and schwannoma in the suprasellar region is extremely rare. A 64-year-old man presented with walking disturbance and blurred vision for three months. Lateral hemianopsia in the left eye and brachybasia were observed. Magnetic resonance imaging revealed a suprasellar tumor with strong contrast enhancement associated with communicating hydrocephalus. The cerebrospinal fluid tap test improved gait disturbance. Hypothalamic stimulation test revealed hypo-reaction of GH, FSH and LH. After ventriculo-peritoneal shunting, the tumor was totally removed via a bilateral front-basal approach with a clinical diagnosis of craniopharyngioma. No adhesion was observed between the tumor and surrounding structures such as meninges and brain. The histopathological diagnosis was schwannoma. Here we report a case of suprasellar schwannoma associated with communicating hydrocephalus that has not ever been previously reported, with special reference to its pathogenesis.
