Case report: A rare case of neurocytoma of the Vth cranial nerve.
Article in Frontiers in oncology, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
We report a case of neurocytoma originating from cranial nerve V. A 53-year-old female patient presented with a 20-day history of right frontotemporal facial paresthesia and pain. Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) showed a 2.5-cm × 1.4-cm "dumbbell" enhancing lesion located in the cisternal segment of cranial nerve V with extension into Meckel's cave, and the signal characteristics were suggestive of trigeminal neurinoma. The lesion was resected through a subtemporal middle cranial fossa approach. Intraoperative findings revealed that the tumor originated from the cisternal segment of cranial nerve V and extended into Meckel's cave through the trigeminal foramen. No dural attachment was found. The tumor was debulked using sharp dissection and bipolar cautery under the microscope. Extraventricular neurocytomas (EVNs) are extremely rare tumors of the central nervous system. To date, only two cases of neurocytomas arising from cranial nerve VIII have been described. This paper summarizes the clinicopathological features of a case of neurocytoma originating from the cisternal segment of cranial nerve V with extension into Meckel's cave and expounds the relevant diagnoses and treatments, which may provide a practical clinical basis and experience for the diagnosis and treatment of EVN in the future.
