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
introductionRosette-forming glioneuronal tumor (RGNT) is a rare variety of slow growing mixed glioneuronal tumor involving primarily fourth ventricular region. This is a comprehensive analysis of a 22-year-old woman with RGNT composed of mainly cystic components. In addition, the case showed multiple lesions located in brain parenchyma which mimicked cerebral cysticercosis. Here, we analyzed this case and listed some characteristics of RGNTs in reported literature which occurring in atypical locations for further understanding it. CASE REPORT: A 22-year-old woman presented with a history of transient dizziness, nausea, and vomiting. Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) showed multiple cystic lesions in brain parenchyma and then the patient was diagnosed with cerebral cysticercosis possibility. Empirical anti-infective therapy in addition to a follow-up post 2 weeks of MRI examination showed the lesions unchanged. Finally, a biopsy of the right cerebellar hemisphere lesions verified RGNT.
conclusionRGNT is an uncommon tumor classified as grade I glioma by World Health Organization (WHO) with slightly longer course. The imaging findings of RGNT are not specific especially in atypical areas. RGNT is rare, but we should also consider the possibility in diagnosis and differential diagnosis.
