A Unique Case of Sporadic Optic Pathway Glioma in an Infant With Acute Nystagmus.
Article in Cureus, 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
Optic pathway gliomas (OPGs) are a classic pathology seen in patients with neurofibromatosis I (NF-1); however, they are frequently seen as sporadic masses in patients with mutations activating the mitogen-activated protein kinase (MAPK) pathway. These sporadic tumors present rapidly with vision deficits, compared to those in neurofibromatosis I, which may be found incidentally. They can involve multiple aspects of the optic pathway and have classic imaging findings that make definitive diagnosis possible with magnetic resonance imaging. This case highlights a six-month-old boy who had an acute history of nystagmus and severe milestone regression, who was diagnosed with bilateral optic pathway gliomas. This case describes the associated imaging findings in addition to a discussion of management and overall prognosis of sporadic compared to NF-1-associated optic pathway gliomas.
