Fetal subependymal giant cell astrocytoma: A case report and review of the literature.
Article in Surgical neurology international, 2020. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 7 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
backgroundSubependymal giant cell astrocytomas (SEGAs) appear approximately in 10% of patients with tuberous sclerosis. These tumors are most commonly diagnosed in childhood and adolescence, with CASE DESCRIPTION: We present the case of a congenital SEGA detected in an antenatal ultrasound and further investigated with fetal magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) scans at 22 and 32 weeks of gestational age. At 9 days of age, the child underwent craniotomy and partial excision of the tumor, followed by a second more extensive operation 13 days later. The patient was subsequently administered mammalian target of rapamycin inhibitor (everolimus).
conclusionIn the latest follow-up MRI, at the age of two, the SEGA remained unchanged. Management of these tumors in neonates is challenging, mainly due to high morbidity and mortality of surgical treatment in these ages.
