Rare Case of a Clival Chondroma Resulting in Panhypopituitarism.
Article in Cureus, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper.
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
Chondromas are rare benign tumors composed of hyaline cartilage that can arise in various locations in the body. Their occurrence in the clivus, leading to panhypopituitarism, is exceptionally rare. This case report describes a 93-year-old female with a known clival chondroma who presented with altered mental status, presumed to be secondary to toxic metabolic encephalopathy due to an infectious cause. Further diagnostic evaluation revealed pituitary hormone levels below the normal range. This case report aims to highlight a unique case of panhypopituitarism attributed to a chondroma in the clivus with tumor extension to the sellar region, emphasizing the diagnostic challenges and treatment options for this unusual pathology.
