Sensorineural Hearing Loss as the Prominent Symptom in Meningeal Carcinomatosis.
Article in Current oncology (Toronto, Ont.), 2021. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 4 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
Sensorineural hearing loss (SNHL) has been reported rarely in patients with meningeal carcinomatosis (MC). We summarized the clinical data of eight MC patients with SNHL and 35 patients reported from publications. In the eight patients with SNHL, the medium onset age was 48 (range from 37 to 66) years and six (75%) were male. Seven (87.5%) suffered from headaches as the initial symptom, and they experienced SNHL during the first two months after the occurrence of headaches (0.5 to 2 months, average 1.5 months). The audiogram configuration was flat in three patients (37.5%) and showed total deafness in five patients (62.5%). The damage of cranial nerves VI (abducens) was observed in six patients (75%), and four patients (50%) had cranial nerves VII (facial) injury during the disease course. The percentage of damage of cranial nerves was higher than the patients without SNHL (VIth, 75.0% vs. 13.3%,
