History, Current Techniques, and Future Prospects of Surgery to the Sellar and Parasellar Region.
Review in Cancers, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 papers.
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
The sellar and parasellar region can be affected by diverse pathologies. The deep-seated location and surrounding critical neurovascular structures make treatment challenging; there is no singular, optimal approach for management. The history and development of transcranial and transsphenoidal approaches by pioneers in skull base surgery were largely aimed at treating pituitary adenomas, which are the most common lesions of the sella. This review explores the history of sellar surgery, the most commonly used approaches today, and future considerations for surgery of the sellar/parasellar region.
