1 · What the graph read from it

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.

2 · The registry

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

Tuberculum sellae meningiomas (TSMs) arise from the anterior skull base. Endocrine status after TSM resection is an important determinant of quality of life. We sought to better characterize the risk of postoperative endocrinopathy for patients with TSM undergoing open transcranial approach (TCA) microsurgical resection. A systematic review was conducted following MOOSE and PRISMA guidelines. Results were screened against predefined criteria, which included studies evaluating endocrinopathy rates after open transcranial microsurgery for TSM. Outcome incidence was calculated using random-effect meta-analysis of proportions. Eight studies met the inclusion criteria, comprising 406 patients. The average age of the cohort was 52.2 years, and a majority (70%) of the patients were female. The pooled incidence of postoperative transient diabetes insipidus (DI) was 7.5% (95% CI 2.9-12%; p = 0.001; I
