Central Neurocytoma in a Teenager, a Rare Cause of Hemiplegia, and a Diagnostic Dilemma in a Resource-Poor Setting.
Article in Case reports in pathology, 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
Background: Central neurocytoma is a benign intraventricular neuroectodermal tumor most often arising in the lateral ventricles. Due to the location of this tumor, common signs and symptoms include obstructive hydrocephalus, recurrent headache, visual impairment, nausea, and vomiting. Central neurocytoma and intraventricular oligodendroglioma share similar gross features and cellular and architectural morphology, which may pose a diagnostic challenge in a poor resource setting. Immunohistochemical neuronal stains are useful for the two tumors in our setting. Conclusion: Central neurocytoma (CN) is an uncommon cause of intracranial space occupying lesion (ICSOL) in the teenage age group in our setting. Central neurocytoma and intraventricular oligodendroglioma share similar radiologic and histomorphological features. Immunohistochemical evaluation with neuronal markers is essential in these two tumors, as they have different prognoses and surgical and treatment outcomes.
