Malignant epidermoid arising from the third ventricle: A case report.
Article in World journal of radiology, 2019. 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
backgroundThird epidermoid tumors are a rare finding. The appearance of these tumors often makes them difficult to diagnose, and thus they require multimodality imaging. CASE SUMMARY: A 48-year-old male patient reported to our hospital with complaints of vomiting and severe headache. The patient also complained of involuntary micturition for the past five days. We used a combination of computed tomography (CT) and magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) imaging modalities to confirm the presence of a malignant epidermoid cyst arising from the third ventricle. A contrast-enhanced CT of the head demonstrated minimal perilesional enhancement while an MRI revealed a large, lobulated and septated T2 hyperintense mass arising from the third ventricle. The maximum size of the lesion measured 73 mm × 65 mm × 64 mm in size.
conclusionMalignant epidermoid arising from the third ventricle in an adult male was reported using a combination of CT, MRI, and MR spectroscopy.
