[Ectopia of the pituitary].
Review in Der Pathologe, 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
The adenohypophysis has a large intrasellar part and two small parts at the pituitary stalk and the pharynx. Near this extrasellar pituitary tissue, and also in sinus sphenoidalis and sinus cavernosus, ectopic pituitary adenomas can develop. They are indistinguishable in structure and function from usual intrasellar adenomas. The neurohypophysis can show dystopias within complex malformations. In so-called pituitary stalk interruption syndrome, a real ectopia of the neurohypophysis is found at the eminentia mediana of the hypothalamus. Ectopic tissue in the pituitary is extremely rare: foci of ganglionic cells were found in the neurohypophysis and adrenocortical tissue in the adenohypophysis. Focal squamous epithelia in the anterior pituitary are a common finding but they are rather metaplastic from parenchymal cells than ectopic tissue. Small foci of ectopic salivary gland tissue are not rare in the intermediate zone.
