Pre- and postnatal MR imaging of an asymptomatic giant hypothalamic hamartoma.
Article in Radiology case reports, 2020. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 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
Hypothalamic hamartomas are rare tumors that are most often diagnosed in early childhood. These lesions are classified as giant hypothalamic hamartomas when they exceed 4 cm in any 1 dimension. The most common presenting symptoms associated with these lesions are precocious puberty, gelastic seizures, and (less commonly) syndromic conditions such as Pallister-Hall syndrome. We present a unique case of an asymptomatic giant hypothalamic hamartoma diagnosed prenatally by fetal magnetic resonance imaging and followed throughout infancy. This case demonstrates the utility of multimetric analysis using difference sequences, including diffuse-weighted imaging, to assess specific properties of intracranial lesions detected in utero and to aid in accurate diagnosis prior to birth.
