1 · What the graph read from it

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.

2 · The registry

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

The patient is a 51-year-old woman with an epidermoid cyst extending bilaterally along the clivus and cerebellopontine angles from the level of the cisterna magna to the prepeduncular cistern. Her presenting symptoms included hearing loss, tinnitus, and imbalance for 4 months. Near-complete resection of the epidermoid cyst was achieved via a left far-lateral approach. The patient did well after the procedure with no new permanent cranial nerve deficits and unchanged or slightly improved preoperative deficits.
