Primary Circumscribed Meningeal Melanoma Involving the Meckel's Cave: A Report of a Rare Case and Review of Literature.
Article in Cureus, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 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
Primary intracranial meningeal melanomas are rare. Diagnosing primary meningeal melanomas mostly involves comprehensive assessment through clinical and radiological means. This evaluation should encompass a detailed dermal and ophthalmic examination. Any suspicious lesion must be biopsied and examined microscopically. This is crucial not only to differentiate primary intracranial melanoma from other brain tumors but also to rule out metastases from potential sources of primary cutaneous or non-cutaneous melanomas. Surgery is considered the mainstay of treatment. Despite melanomas being generally considered radio- and chemo-resistant tumors, adjuvant radiotherapy and chemotherapy still play a crucial role in their management. The treatment landscape for primary meningeal melanoma is continually evolving, with ongoing research aiming to improve outcomes for patients with this challenging disease.
