An update on multimodal management of craniopharyngioma in children.
Article in Frontiers in oncology, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 5 papers, 1 of them a synthesis that pooled 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.
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
Craniopharyngioma (CP) represent 1.2-4.6% of all intracranial tumors in children and carry a significant morbidity due to their lesional intimacy with structures involved in neurological, visual, and endocrinological functions. Variable treatment modalities being available, including surgery, radiation therapy, alternative surgeries, and intracystic therapies or combinations of them, their common goal is to reduce immediate and long-term morbidity while preserving these functions. Multiple attempts have been made to re-evaluate surgical and irradiation strategies in order to optimize their complication and morbidity profile. However, despite significant advances in "function sparing" approaches, such as limited surgery and improved technologies of radiation therapies, achieving interdisciplinary consensus on the optimal treatment algorithm remains a challenge. Furthermore, there remains a significant span of improvement given the number of specialties involved as well as the complex and chronic nature of CP disease. This perspective article aims to summarize recent changes and knowledge gains in the field of pediatric CP, outlining updated treatment recommendations, a concept of integrative interdisciplinary care and the implication of novel potential diagnostic tools. A comprehensive update on the multimodal treatment of pediatric CP is presented, focusing on "function-preserving" therapies and their implications.
