TRANS-ENDOSCOPIC TREATMENT OF CRANIOPHARYNGIOMA AND RECOVERY FROM BLINDNESS IN ADULT PATIENT - A CASE REPORT.
Article in Acta clinica Croatica, 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
We report a case of trans-endoscopic transventricular approach to a large cystic craniopharyngioma. Surgery was performed three days after visual acuity on both eyes deteriorated to blindness. Magnetic resonance imaging before surgery revealed a large lesion in the suprasellar region that severely compressed the optic chiasm and displaced the third ventricle upward. The lesion was operated through the trans-endoscopic transventricular approach, with the aim of urgent decompression of the optic apparatus. At first, wide ventriculo-cysto-cisternostomy was performed, and then tumor tissue was removed. Postoperatively, visual acuity significantly improved on one eye. Our case shows that this minimally invasive technique is safe and effective and can be an alternative treatment for large cystic craniopharyngiomas. The reported case also shows that loss of vision can still be recovered even after the 72-hour period in adults.
