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

Recurrence of Rathke's cleft cysts (RCC) following surgery is not uncommon. We present a 33-year-old male patient with chronic headache and visual disturbances whose MRI showed mostly cystic, suprasellar mass with peripheral enhancement. Endoscopic extended transsphenoidal approach and tumor resection was performed and RCC was pathologically confirmed postoperatively. Early recurrence was first suspected at 3 months following surgery, and his serial MRIs showed a recurred mass without associated clinical symptoms. Upon further histopathological study, extensive squamous metaplasia and high Ki-67 were seen. Also, in this study, we discuss important factors associated with cyst recurrence following surgery.
