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

Background: Spinal cavernomas (SCs) account for about 5% of all spinal vascular malformations. Intradural SCs occur in just 3% of cases and are typically intramedullary. Case Description: A 58-year-old female presented with progressive left occipital neuralgia, left cervicobrachial neuralgia, and paresthesia of all four extremities. The magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) revealed an intradural extramedullary C2-C4 lesion causing significant spinal cord compression. Gross total tumor excision was accomplished through a midline laminectomy pathologically; the lesion proved to be a cavernoma. The postoperative follow-up MRI obtained 4 months postoperatively showed complete tumor resection. Conclusion: A 58-year-old female successfully underwent gross total excision of a C2-C4 intradural extramedullary SC.
