Cerebellar liponeurocytoma: Rare posterior fossa tumor.
Article in Radiology case reports, 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
Cerebellar liponeurocytoma is a rare WHO grade II glioneuronal tumor, characterized by a benign course and a more favorable prognosis. In this paper, we report a 52-year-old man, hospitalized in emergency because of clinical signs of increased intracranial pressure, and gait disturbances. The MRI revealed a lateral well shaped solid lesion within the left cerebellar hemisphere, having a low signal intensity compared to the cerebrospinal fluid, and causing a triventicular hydrocephalus and tonsillar herniation. The patient underwent a direct approach of the tumor through a left suboccipital craniectomy. Total removal of the lesion was achieved, and the histological diagnosis was cerebellar liponeurocytoma. The tumor cell proliferation index was < 6 %, therefore, radiotherapy and chemotherapy were not implemented after surgery. After 5 years of close follow-up there were no clinical or radiological signs of recurrence. Our objective in reporting another case of this unusual tumor is to discuss clinical profile, radiologic and histologic features as well as treatment and prognosis of this rare posterior fossa tumor.
