An Intradural Extramedullary Enterogenous Cyst in the Conus Medullaris: A Report of a Rare Presentation.
Article in Cureus, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 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
Intraspinal enterogenous cysts are rare congenital abnormalities that mainly develop in the spinal canal, more commonly in the cervical and thoracic regions, and rarely in the lumbar spine. We present a case of neurenteric (NE) cyst in the conus medullaris and cauda equina junction at the level of L1 in a patient presenting with a nine-year history of progressive lower limb weakness, paresthesia, and muscle wasting. The patient underwent complete resection of the cyst and had no postoperative complications with marked improvement of paresthesia and some localized pain in the lower back manageable by analgesics.
