A modified park bench position: the "Dormeuse" position.
Review in Acta neurochirurgica, 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
backgroundBecause of the restricted volume of the cisternal space, proper patient positioning on the operating table is of utmost importance during surgery by retrosigmoid approaches. Three positions are commonly used: supine, with the head rotated to the side contralateral to the lesion; the semi-sitting position; and the park bench position. Each position has advantages and disadvantages, and the surgeon should choose the one best suited to the individual patient and the pathology to be treated.
methodsWe describe a modified park bench position that we call the Dormeuse position.
conclusionThe Dormeuse position guarantees decrease in the posterior fossa pressure and allows optimal neural and vascular manipulation and control of any aspect of the cerebellopontine angle.
