Atypical convexity meningioma presenting with photophobia and skull erosion.

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
A 41-year-old man presented with photophobia. The patient showed a choked disc and right-sided quadrantanopia with an intact sphincter reaction to light stimulation. Computed tomography revealed an isodense mass in the right frontal convexity, accompanied by extensive perifocal brain edema and smooth-contoured skull erosion. On cerebral magnetic resonance imaging, the tumor was dural-based, appeared inhomogeneous intensity on both T1- and T2-weighted sequences, and was intensely enhanced. Magnetic resonance angiography revealed unusually ectatic right-sided middle meningeal and superficial temporal arteries. The tumor, which was elastic hard, highly vascular, and severely adhered to the frontal cortices, was completely resected. The microscopic findings of the resected specimen were consistent with angiomatous meningioma. The patient's photophobia resolved after surgery, with resolution of the optic chiasm compression. Meningiomas arising in the frontal convexity may cause photophobia. Angiomatous meningioma should be considered when a broad-based tumor is found in the cerebral convexity accompanied by skull erosion and extensive perifocal edema.
