Endoscopic endonasal approach for MRI-Negative Cushing's microadenoma.
Article in Neurosurgical focus: Video, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 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
A 54-year-old male with a history of diabetes mellitus type 2 for 12 years and hypertension was seen in the clinic due to poorly controlled diabetes. Inferior petrosal sinus sampling (IPSS) confirmed Cushing's disease with primary adrenocorticotropic hormone (ACTH)-secreting pituitary adenoma on the right. However, 3T and subsequent 7T MRI showed no visible tumor. An endoscopic transsphenoidal approach was selected to explore the pituitary gland and resect the presumed microadenoma. Tumor was identified in the lateral recess along the right medial cavernous sinus wall and gross-total resection (GTR) was performed. The normal pituitary gland was preserved, and the patient went into remission. The video can be found here: https://stream.cadmore.media/r10.3171/2023.4.FOCVID2324.
