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

backgroundThe main challenge in tuberculum sellae meningioma (TSM) resection is the safe dissection of the optic nerves, which many a times are compressed and distorted by the tumor. While intuitive, an approach from the side of predominant tumor extension makes tumor dissection from the medial surface of the ipsilateral optic nerve rather blind. We describe here a contralateral supraorbital eyebrow approach (c-SEA) to address this "blind spot."

methodc-SEA was performed using a 2 × 2 cm craniotomy. The patient improved after surgery and postoperative imaging confirmed the totality of the tumor resection.

conclusionc-SEA can be an excellent minimally invasive option for asymmetric TSM.
