Intramedullary cavernous malformation: A case report.
Article in Radiology case reports, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper.
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
Cavernous malformations are rare vascular anomalies of the central nervous system, occurring in the spinal cord in just 5% of cases. Despite being documented in the literature, intramedullary cavernous malformations are exceedingly rare and often challenging to distinguish from other intramedullary lesions. We report a case of a 42-year-old patient with back pain, right-sided dysesthesias, and impaired proprioception in the distal limbs for approximately 3 months. Magnetic resonance imaging, crucial for differential diagnosis, identified intramedullary cavernous malformations at T11-12. Several conditions can hide the real cause of back pain; however, magnetic resonance imaging can reveal common conditions (such as discal hernia) and rare findings like cavernous malformations. Magnetic resonance imaging remains the study of choice for diagnosing and characterizing intramedullary cavernous malformations.
