1 · What the graph read from it

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.

2 · The registry

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

Craniopharyngiomas are benign tumors of neuroepithelial origin, believed to arise from remnants of Rathke's pouch. Their proximity to vital structures of the visual pathway and hypothalamus leads to both neurological and endocrinological complications. Endocrinal complications are seen in 40%-87% of the affected and can develop at presentation or post-surgery and radiotherapy. Central diabetes insipidus (CDI) is a common endocrinopathy associated with craniopharyngioma, but rarely a presenting symptom before or after surgery. CDI most commonly presents with polyuria and polydipsia. Here, we report a postoperative child with craniopharyngioma where recurrent urinary tract infection and hydronephrosis were initial clues to diagnose CDI.
