The Emptiness Within: A Case of Empty Sella Syndrome.
Article in Cureus, 2022. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
Empty Sella syndrome (ESS) is characterized by the sella turcica being filled with cerebrospinal fluid (CSF), leading to partial or total compression of the pituitary gland, often resulting in hormonal deficiencies. It can be primary or secondary. In patients presenting with complaints of generalized weakness and fatiguability, with multiple episodes of prior hospitalizations, a thorough history and evaluation can lead to a diagnosis. We report a case of a 50-year-old lady with recurrent admissions for hyponatremia. Based on biochemical parameters and brain imaging, she was diagnosed to have ESS. We report this case to highlight the various diagnostic challenges associated with panhypopituitarism and the importance of having a high clinical suspicion, as the treatment is simple and lifesaving.
