Intradural Extramedullary Cavernous Malformation of the Spinal Cord with Hemorrhagic Transformation and Rapid Expansion.
Article in Case reports in neurological medicine, 2022. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 papers.
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
Intradural extramedullary cavernous malformations in the spinal cord are rarely occurring vascular lesions. Mostly they are clinically silent unless the hemorrhagic transformation causes subarachnoid hemorrhage or neurologic deficits. We report the case of a 51-year-old man who developed a headache and weakness of the lower limb. Spinal cord magnetic resonance imaging revealed that the cause of his symptoms was a spinal intradural and extramedullary cavernous malformation with hemorrhagic transformation causing subarachnoid hemorrhage and compression of the thoracic spinal cord. Surgical decompression of the spinal cord followed by the resection of the lesion resulted in significant neurological improvement. Early diagnosis and early surgical extirpation of the lesion should be done to prevent recurrent hemorrhagic transformation and development of neurological symptoms.
