Benign extracranial meningioma with pulmonary metastasis: a case report and review of literature.
Review in Journal of medical case reports, 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
backgroundMeningiomas are common central nervous system tumors, predominantly intracranial, they rarely develop extracranially. Moreover, benign meningiomas seldom metastasize. CASE PRESENTATION: This article presents a case report of a 55-year-old Chinese male patient with a primary World Health Organization grade 1 meningioma originating from the petrous apex of the temporal bone, accompanied by pulmonary metastasis. Following two incomplete resections of the primary tumor, the patient underwent radiotherapy and has since maintained a stable condition.
conclusionThe case report highlights the rare occurrence of pulmonary metastasis in a benign World Health Organization grade 1 meningioma originating from an extracranial site. It also illustrates the important role of radiotherapy in treating patients with meningioma. Additionally, a review of related literature is provided to gain insights for the diagnosis and treatment of the disease.
