Vagal Paraganglioma: Surgical Removal with Superior Laryngeal Nerve Preservation.
Article in Vascular specialist international, 2019. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 4 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
Vagal paragangliomas (VPGLs) represent <5% of all head and neck paragangliomas (PGLs) and show a 17% to 20% risk of malignancy. We present a rare case of a 50-year-old gender with a left VPGL in her neck. To date, approximately 200 cases have been reported. The tumor showed web-like adhesions and arterial supply from the external carotid artery. We performed en bloc resection including a part of the vagus nerve. The superior laryngeal nerve was preserved with the "human communicating nerve" which maintains neural communication in >70% of humans, providing motor fibers to the larynx. The patient recovered uneventfully and was discharged on the 3rd postoperative day. These tumors are therapeutically challenging owing to their proximity to vital neck and skull base structures. Early detection decreases surgical morbidity and mortality. Preservation of viable neural tissue is important in advanced disease.
