Vestibular schwannoma coexisting with dermoid cyst: A case report.
Article in Oncology letters, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
Multiple primary intracranial tumors, or the presence of two or more primary intracranial tumors, are a rare clinical occurrence. The current study presents the case of a 28-year-old patient with concurrent left vestibular schwannoma, left cerebellar hemisphere dermoid cyst and craniovertebral junction malformation, specifically basilar invagination and Klippel-Feil syndrome. The patient exhibited symptoms of torticollis and recurrent headaches, with no apparent hearing loss. A far lateral approach was selected for surgical resection to address these complex conditions and achieve gross total resection in a single-stage surgery while preserving both facial and auditory nerve function. Successful gross total resection was achieved and the function of both nerves was effectively preserved. Of note, the coexistence of vestibular schwannoma and dermoid cyst in the same patient has not been documented in the existing literature. The present study provided a comprehensive account of the presentation and progression of this uncommon medical scenario. Furthermore, a surgical principle for the management of multiple primary intracranial tumors was proposed.
