Inflammatory myofibroblastic tumor masquerading as an anterior choroidal artery fusiform aneurysm.
Article in Surgical neurology international, 2021. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper.
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
backgroundInflammatory myofibroblastic tumor is a rare, poorly understood tumor that has been found to occur in almost every organ tissue. Its location within the central nervous system is uncommon, and patients tend to present with nonspecific symptoms. CASE DESCRIPTION: A female in her eighth decade presented to neurosurgery clinic with complaints of headache and dizziness. Initial imaging was consistent with a low-grade, benign brain lesion in the region of the left choroidal fissure. She was recommended for observation but returned 1 month later with progressive symptoms and doubling of the lesion size. She underwent surgical resection and was found to have an IMT arising from the wall of the left anterior choroidal artery.
conclusionIntracranial IMT remains a rare and poorly understood entity. The present case demonstrates a novel presentation of IMT in an adult patient and exemplifies the heterogeneity of the disease presentation.
