Communicating hydrocephalus and coexisting nonenhancing tumor: An ominous sign for patients with neurofibromatosis type 1?
Article in Radiology case reports, 2018. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
A 26-year-old woman with familial neurofibromatosis type 1 sustained headache that worsened for 1 month. Neuroimaging revealed a mild ventriculomegaly and nonenhancing lesion in the pons. In spite of repeated cerebrospinal fluid examinations and magnetic resonance imaging, the etiology was not determined. The affected pons markedly enlarged in the following 2 months, with extensive leptomeningeal dissemination. Biopsy through hemilaminectomy of the T9 was diagnosed as glioblastoma multiforme. Prompt histologic examination should be performed when patients with familial neurofibromatosis type 1 manifest communicating hydrocephalus coexistent with a nonenhancing tumor.
