Adult Supratentorial Extraventricular Anaplastic Ependymoma: Therapeutic Approach and Clinical Review.
Article in Asian journal of neurosurgery. 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
We report a 69-year-old patient with left paresthesia and hemiparesis. Magnetic resonance imaging revealed a right frontoparietal cystic tumor. A subtotal surgical resection was performed, and an Ommaya reservoir was left in place. The pathological diagnosis was supratentorial extraventricular anaplastic ependymoma. Radiation therapy was administered, and Ommaya reservoir drainages were performed. Four months after, her clinical status deteriorated after a reservoir drainage and image revealed an acute hemorrhage. An additional resection was carried out, and chemotherapy was undergone. One month later the tumor relapsed and the patient died 18 months after initial diagnosis. Some poor prognostic factors have been suggested in the literature: Young age, incomplete tumor resection - eloquent area location, histological anaplasia, supratentorial, and extraventricular locations. Ommaya reservoirs may be used in cystic lesions as a temporary measure only. Surgery is the mainstay of therapy with adjuvant radiotherapy and/or chemotherapy.
