Intraventricular cystic papillary meningioma: A case report and literature review.
Review in Medicine, 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
introductionPapillary meningioma is an extremely rare malignant lesion with high degree of invasiveness, high recurrence rate, and perivascular pseudopapillary structure. The incidence of cystic degeneration in papillary meningiomas is relatively low, and cystic papillary meningiomas growing in the ventricle are even rarer. Here, we present a case of cystic meningioma and review the literature to propose the diagnosis, treatment, immunohistochemical features, and prognosis of the same. PATIENT CONCERNS: In July 2013, a 35-year-old male Chinese patient presented with dizziness that lasted for a week, without relief. Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) revealed a 2.0 cm × 1.5 cm × 3.0 cm-sized mass located in the left lateral ventricle trigone. The tumor was small and likely non-malignant. Therefore, the patient received conservative treatment and regular follow-ups. In June 2017, the patient experienced sudden severe headache, dizziness, and vomiting. DIAGNOSIS AND
interventionMRI revealed that the mass in the left lateral ventricle trigone had increased to 5.0 cm × 7.0 cm × 8.0 cm over 4 years. The patient underwent surgical resection via the left parietal-occipital approach. Two months postoperatively, the patient received 60 Gy local radiotherapy. The postoperative histopathology suggested that the mass was a cystic papillary meningioma. OUTCOMES: Two years after the operation, the patient was asymptomatic, and no recurrence of the lesion was noted on MRI.
conclusionThe diagnosis of intraventricular cystic papillary meningioma depends mainly on its histology and imaging features. Total resection and adjuvant radiotherapy can result in a relatively good prognosis of patients with intraventricular cystic papillary meningiomas.
