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

objectiveTo describe a telovelar approach to the fourth ventricle for excision of a choroid plexus tumor within the ventricle. ANIMAL: A 3-year-old entire male Chihuahua. STUDY

designCase report

methodsA 3-year-old dog with two-month history of progressive vestibular signs and subdued mentation was diagnosed with a fourth ventricle tumor. Gross total resection of the tumor was achieved through a telovelar approach to the fourth ventricle.

resultsComplete removal of the tumor was confirmed on immediate postoperative MRI. The dog recovered from the surgical procedure without complications, displaying some neurological deficits as preoperatively. His neurological examination was normal 2 weeks after surgery and remained so until the time of writing this case report (28 months) without additional treatment.

conclusionThe telovelar approach allowed complete excision of a choroid plexus tumor located in the fourth ventricle of the dog reported here.
