Insular operculum disconnection and herniation into the parapharyngeal space due to a fetal Galassi Type III arachnoid cyst: a case report.
Article in Frontiers in neuroscience, 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
Arachnoid cysts (ACs) are frequently encountered as incidental findings in the brain, with most cases being asymptomatic and not requiring intervention. However, severe brain malformations caused by ACs are rare. In this study, we describe the case of an 8-day-old female infant with a left mandibular mass that was diagnosed as an insular operculum, which has become disconnected and herniated into the parapharyngeal space through an incompletely ossified greater wing of the sphenoid, caused by a fetal Galassi Type III AC. The newborn also exhibited left hearing impairment, which did not improve at the 6-month follow-up after the cyst peritoneal shunt. This report highlights that ACs that manifest during the early fetal period may protrude from the cranial cavity through an unossified skull, potentially affecting the development of brain tissues.
