Diffuse Leptomeningeal Glioneuronal Tumor: A Rare Case Report with Review of Literature.
Article in Asian journal of neurosurgery, 2022. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper.
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
Diffuse leptomeningeal glioneuronal tumor (DLGNT) is a rare tumor that was defined as a separate entity in the 2016 World Health Organization classification of brain tumors. It is most common in the pediatric age group. The diagnosis of this tumor can be made preoperatively by its characteristic imaging findings of diffuse intracranial and intraspinal nodular leptomeningeal thickening and enhancement associated with small cyst-like nonenhancing lesions in the brain and spinal cord. We report a case of DLGNT in a 7-year-old male presenting with hydrocephalus. The patient was treated successfully by cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) diversion followed by biopsy of the lesion from the cerebellum. Histopathology and immunohistochemistry confirmed the diagnosis of DLGNT. Our case would hopefully increase the awareness regarding this rare tumor and facilitate an early diagnosis and management of the affected patients with atypical radiological features.
