The rare case of optic nerve cavernoma: A case report depicting the diagnostic challenge.
Article in Radiology case reports, 2024. 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 manuscript describes a case of Cavernous Malformation in the optic pathway which is extremely rare, accounting for less than 1% of central nervous system cavernomas. This case report highlights a patient initially diagnosed with a glioma, but subsequent MRI changes and extensive analysis ruled in favor of a hemorrhagic optic neuropathy caused by an optic nerve cavernoma. The patient experienced temporary vision loss but fully regained her vision within a week. Based on clinical, biochemical, and radiological findings, it was confirmed as a rare case of optic nerve cavernoma, and the patient was managed expectantly due to her complete recovery of vision. Follow-up imaging after 1 year indicated a stable lesion with evolving characteristics consistent with a cavernoma. This study provides an informative review of the condition and highlights the key radiologic features of this disease.
