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

backgroundThe foramen rotundum and anterior cavernous sinus have traditionally been accessed by transcranial approaches that are limited by the high density of critical neurovascular structures. The transmaxillary approach provides an entirely extradural route to the foramen rotundum and anterior cavernous sinus.

methodThis patient with neurofibromatosis and facial pain with trigeminal schwannoma at the foramen rotundum was successfully treated by transmaxillary resection of the tumor. This approach allowed for a direct extradural access to the pathology, with bony decompression and tumor resection, avoiding transcranial routes.

conclusionThe transmaxillary approach provides a safe and entirely extradural corridor to access smaller localized skull base lesions at and surrounding the cavernous sinus.
