Symptomatic Cerebral Vasospasm Following the Resection of Petroclival Meningioma.
Article in Cureus, 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
Petroclival meningioma (PCM) represents a formidable challenge due to its intimate association with the brainstem, basilar artery, perforating arteries, and cranial nerves. Vasospasm is a recognized complication in neurosurgery. Its incidence following skull base surgery is unknown. Here, we present a 33-year-old woman who was diagnosed with PCM and managed surgically with the anterior transpetrosal approach. Two days postoperatively, she developed sudden confusion, blurred vision, and right-sided weakness. Cerebrovascular imaging confirmed the diagnosis of vasospasm. The patient was managed successfully with combined medical and endovascular treatment of vasospasm which resulted in significant clinical improvement. Vasospasm following skull base surgery is rare. Early recognition of such rare complication and prompt response are key to achieving excellent clinical outcomes.
