Intracranial lipoma with extra cranial subcutaneous component with a midline bony defect and persistent falcine sinus.
Article in BJR case reports, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 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
Intracranial lipomas are only 0.06-0.46% of intracranial lesions, forming a rare type of congenital malformation. Interhemispheric lipoma associated with subcutaneous component is extremely rare. They are usually asymptomatic, but may also present with seizures, raised intracranial pressure, dementia, hemiparesis, persistent headaches, psychomotor retardation and cranial nerve defects. These are associated with vascular, bone, tentorial and other abnormalities. MR examination must be considered to evaluate for a possibility of intracranial component and to rule out other anomalies. Here, we present features of a rare presentation of intracranial lipoma.
