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

Sporadic spinal extramedullary hemangioblastomas of the conus medullaris are extremely rare. We present the case of a 40-year-old male with symptoms of severe back pain and monoradiculopathy. The magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) revealed an intradural extramedullary tumor attached to the conus medullaris. Total tumor removal was achieved via a typical posterior midline approach through laminectomy of L1 and L2 vertebrae, resulting in complete resolution of the preoperative symptoms. The histological examination was consistent with hemangioblastoma. To the best of our knowledge, this is the fifth case reported in the literature. We performed a brief literature review outlining the mainstay of diagnosis and therapeutic approach to these challenging lesions.
