Episodic Headache, Periorbital Pain, and Multifocal Paresthesias as Presenting Symptoms of Central Neurocytoma: A Case Report.
Article in Cureus, 2023. 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
Central neurocytoma (CN) is a rare intraventricular tumor. The common presenting symptoms of CN are headache, vomiting, and visual disturbance, which results from increased intracranial pressure. This report presents a case of CN with unusual clinical presentations. A 25-year-old female with CN presented with a one-day history of unilateral headache, ipsilateral periorbital pain, multifocal paresthesias, and vomiting. Magnetic resonance images showed an intraventricular mass with a soap-bubble appearance and numerous cystic areas typical for CN, causing obstructive hydrocephalus and a midline shift. After one night of rest, her headache, periorbital pain, and paresthesias disappeared. It is possible that the tumor could be mobile with regard to the patient's head position, causing occasional obstruction of the foramen of Monro. Due to the tumor size, which was larger than 4 centimeters, the surgical approach with either gross tumor resection or subtotal resection plus adjuvant radiotherapy should be carefully considered.
