Delving Inside the Enigmatic Central Neurocytoma: Electronic Hospital Database Retrieval.
Review in Acta informatica medica : AIM : journal of the Society for Medical Informatics of Bosnia & Herzegovina : casopis Drustva za medicinsku informatiku BiH, 2020. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 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
introductionCentral neurocytomas (CNCs) appear as a rare benign intraventricular lesions involving <0.5% of primary brain tumors. There are no consensus guidelines for the optimal management strategy, so that this entity still enigmatic.
aimThis review aims to highpoint the entity of central neurocytoma in patients managed by our department and the unique surgical considerations, to review the epidemiology and demographics in patients treated in our institution.
methodsThis retrospective analysis was conducted by reviewing tall patients managed at King Hussein Medical Center (KHMC) and their medical records. Patient reports were retrieved from the electronic hospital database for a 14-year period (2004 _ 2018). The review was permitted by the Royal Medical Services Institutional ethics committee. As this study was a retrospective chart review, the requirement for consent was waived.
resultsStudy revealed 33- patients who had Central neurocytoma as the underlying cause for admission. Of the final population 42.4% of the patients were males. Mean age at diagnosis was 29.48±9.78 years. Two cases were extra-ventricular, to cases were anaplastc. Only one patient developed recurrence.
conclusionWe have one the large series of Central neurocytomas in literature. They are benign and total resection is feasible. New adjuvant therapies are flourishing. Supplementary studies are required clarify the cardinal factors responsible for its pathogenesis; diagnosis; and to consolidate management approaches protocol.
