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

Several theories have been postulated to explain the embryogenesis of central nervous system (CNS) neurenteric cysts (NCs), but the exact mechanism remains poorly understood. Of those, the neurenteric canal migration hypothesis suggesting endodermal cell migration through the neurenteric canal and settling among ectodermal cells prior to neural tube closure might be the most robust as it explains, in contrast to other hypotheses, the existence of lateral supratentorial lesions, which are extremely rare, compared to their infratentorial counterparts. This mechanism might be supported by past medical history or the coexistence of CNS epidermoid cysts, which are thought to arise due to improper neural tube closure potentially increasing the probability of endodermal migration and subsequent NC development, yet there are no reported cases in the literature. We present a case of a patient with a history of a previously resected intracranial epidermoid cyst, representing three simultaneous pathologies including a laterally based right frontal NC along with a right corona radiata cavernous malformation lesion, and right middle cerebral artery bifurcation aneurysm. The three lesions were treated microsurgically in one operative session without complications. We discuss the case and review the relevant pathoembryology of laterally based supratentorial NC.
