Expanded endoscopic endonasal transpterygoid transmaxillary approach for a giant trigeminal schwannoma.
Article in Neurosurgical focus: Video, 2020. 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
Atypical trigeminal schwannomas (ATSs) are notorious for their ability to invade the skull base. An expanded endoscopic endonasal approach (eEEA) provides direct access to the tumor with no need for cerebral retraction or manipulation of neurovascular structures. Herein, we present a case of a large temporal fossa extradural lesion with secondary invasion of the sella, clivus, and temporal and infratemporal fossae in a 49-year-old male with severe vision loss. A transpterygoid transmaxillary approach was performed. Gross-total removal was achieved and pathology revealed the diagnosis of ATS. Visual function fully recovered in the right side and the patient has been uneventfully followed since surgery. The video can be found here: https://youtu.be/6pSwdYsN9hk.
