An epileptogenic intracranial cystic lesion lined with fallopian tube-type epithelium: illustrative case.

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
backgroundIntracranial cystic lesions are often a trigger for epileptic seizures. However, there has never been a report of a cystic lesion lined with fallopian tube-type epithelium. OBSERVATIONS: A 48-year-old female presented with a cystic lesion in the right occipital lobe, which gradually grew over 8 years. Right occipital lobe epilepsy was diagnosed based on visual aura, convulsive seizures, and electroencephalogram findings and the cyst was surgically removed. Further examination revealed the cyst was lined with ciliated cells, which had morphological and immunohistochemical features similar to those of fallopian tube epithelium. LESSONS: The characteristics of the cyst did not conform to any known types of benign cystic lesion. To the authors' knowledge, no such cyst has been reported before. The authors discuss the origins and pathogenesis of this unfamiliar cystic lesion.
