Anaplasic astrocytoma with exophytic growth in Sylvian fissure in a pediatric patient: a case report.
Article in Journal of surgical 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
Gliomas are the most frequent supratentorial intracranial tumors in the pediatric population. Usually, they are intra-axial lesions with a characteristic image pattern, however, there are few reported cases of gliomas with exophytic growth. There are no previous reports in the literature of gliomas with exophytic growth in the Sylvian fissure. Fourteen year-old female patient who started with seizures. In imaging studies, a neoplasic mass with an exophytic portion in the left Sylvian fissure was found. Macroscopically, total resection was performed, definitive diagnosis was anaplastic astrocytoma. She presented recurrence and is currently receiving adjuvant treatment. Supratentorial gliomas with exophytic growth are extremely rare. We report the first case in the pediatric population, and we consider it is important to know its imaging and macroscopic characteristics for its initial management and to take it into account as a differential diagnosis of exophytic lesions.
