1 · What the graph read from it

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.

2 · The registry

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

Background: Spinal cord hemangioblastomas (HBs) account for 2-15% of all spinal cord neoplasms. They are the third most common primary intramedullary tumor (1-5%). Here, 72-year-old female presented with a thoracic intramedullary spinal HB that responded well to surgery. Case Description: A 72-year-old female presented with a 3-4 years of progressive paresthesias and paraparesis. On examination, she exhibited diffuse distal weakness of the lower extremities. The magnetic resonance scan showed an intramedullary expansive lesion at the T1-T2 level that markedly enhanced with contrast with both proximal and distal hydromyelia. Surgery included a C7 partial and T1-T2 total laminectomies performed under microscope visualization with intraoperative monitoring. At surgery, there was a well-documented cleavage plane between the tumor and the cord; excision was facilitated using the cavitron ultrasonic surgical aspirator device. Conclusion: Surgery is the gold standard treatment for treating/resecting HBs and should include utilization of an operating microscope and intraoperative monitoring.
