Endoscopic ultrasonic resection of calcified tumor of the third ventricle.

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
In this video, the authors present ultrasonic resection of calcified tumor of the third ventricle in a 12-year-old boy. He presented to the emergency department with a 1-week history of headache, drowsiness, and bilateral papilledema. Despite extensive calcification visible on a CT scan, a minimally invasive pure endoscopic approach was chosen. The use of an ultrasonic aspirator allows fast and safe removal of the tumor. The histological diagnosis was a low-grade glioneuronal tumor. In conclusion, the endoscopic ultrasonic aspirator is a useful tool to resect tumors in the ventricular system. The presence of calcifications within the tumor does not contraindicate an endoscopic approach. The video can be found here: https://stream.cadmore.media/r10.3171/2023.1.FOCVID22143.
