Intramedullary Spinal Epidermoid Cyst-A Rare Cause of Spastic Paraparesis.
Article in Asian journal of neurosurgery, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 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
Spinal intramedullary epidermoids are rare intramedullary lesions of the spinal cord. They may be congenital or acquired with the congenital type often associated with spinal dysraphism and other spinal anomalies. The clinical presentation depends on the level of the involvement of the spinal cord. Management of these lesions is surgical excision. We report a case of intramedullary spinal epidermoid who presented with spastic paraparesis.
