Adolescent thoracic scoliosis due to giant ganglioneuroma: a two-case report and literature review.
Review in Nagoya journal of medical science, 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
Ganglioneuromas are rare benign tumors that arise from the sympathetic nervous system. The presentation of tumors is variable and associated with adolescent thoracic scoliosis. Herein, we present two case reports and a review of literature. The two cases involved 10 and 13-year-old patients who were asymptomatic for muscle pain or weakness, and ganglioneuromas were incidentally detected through imaging screening. Both patients underwent a two-stage surgery. The first stage involved detachment of the tumor from the spinal cord and simultaneously performing deformity correction surgery from the posterior aspect. The second stage was resection of the ganglioneuroma through the anterior approach without neurological problems. A two-stage surgery was necessary to excise the tumor and correct the deformity, thereby avoiding neurological problems and concurrently establish a pathological diagnosis. Commencing with the posterior approach proved to be safe and was more effective.
