Colpocephaly and corpus callosum dysgenesis in an adult: A rare case report.
Article in International journal of surgery case reports, 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
introductionColpocephaly, a midline anomaly, may be associated with agenesis of the corpus callosum. While prenatal diagnosis is possible, this malformation is rarely detected in adults and may be asymptomatic. CASE PRESENTATION: We present a case of a 54-year-old male with Colpocephaly and dysgenesis of the corpus callosum, incidentally diagnosed during an emergency department visit. Computed tomography imaging revealed bilateral dilation of the posterior horns of the lateral ventricles and the absence of the corpus callosum. CLINICAL DISCUSSION: Although some adults with Colpocephaly may show clinical symptoms, this anomaly can often be an incidental finding in asymptomatic individuals. Medical imaging plays a crucial role in the early diagnosis of this anomaly. Prenatal ultrasound can also detect midline anomalies, including Colpocephaly.
conclusionAwareness of this anomaly can prevent unnecessary diagnostic and therapeutic interventions.
