Intraosseous Hemangioma of Sella: Case Report and Review of Literature.
Article in World neurosurgery: X, 2019. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 5 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
backgroundPrimary intraosseous hemangioma (PIH) of the skull base, when localized in the sella, is a rare, benign lesion that can mimic other common sellar tumors. Such tumors may be asymptomatic incidental radiologic findings or present with nonspecific symptoms (e.g., headaches). CASE DESCRIPTION: :We present a case of a primary intraosseous hemangioma of the body of sphenoid bone extending into the sellar cavity, clinicoradiographically mimicking an atypical pituitary adenoma.
conclusionsPIH should be included as a rare differential diagnosis in cases of space-occupying sellar lesions with atypical features. Radiologic and intraoperative findings may be suited to entertain a probable diagnosis; however, a definite diagnosis can only be obtained via histopathologic analysis. Surgical excision may be chosen under the assumption of dealing with a primary pituitary lesion, but extent of resection depends on the accessibility, extent, involvement of surrounding structures (such as the internal carotid artery/cavernous sinus), and control of intraoperative bleeding. When facing inoperable or residual lesions, radiotherapy can be a viable option.
