Central Neurocytoma: A Case Report With Literature Review.
Article in Cureus, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 4 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
Central neurocytoma (CN) is a rare, low-grade, neuronal tumor frequently encountered in young adults. Complete surgical resection is the treatment of choice; however, it is associated with grave postoperative complications in a quarter of patients, including neurological (motor weakness, memory deficit, aphasia, and seizure) as well as regional (hydrocephalus, hematoma, infection, and subcutaneous hydrops) complications. Herein, we present a case of a 35-year-old female who presented with decreased vision for the last 7-8 days and headache over the last 1-1.5 years. An ophthalmologic examination suggested papilledema. Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) of the brain illustrated a well-circumscribed, large, lobulated, altered signal intensity midline intraventricular lesion (72 × 68 mm) attached to the septum pellucidum near the foramen of Monro (FoM) most likely to be CN. The patient underwent complete surgical resection but required re-exploration the next day for hematoma removal due to intraventricular hemorrhage. Over the next 40 days, the patient developed hydrocephalus with transtentorial herniation and succumbed. Histopathological examination (HPE) was suggestive of CN and immunohistochemistry (IHC) was strongly positive for synaptophysin, thus confirming the diagnosis of CN.
