Knosp and revised Knosp classifications predict non-functioning pituitary adenoma outcomes: a single tertiary center experience.

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
Non-functioning pituitary adenomas (NFPAs) are hormonally inactive benign tumors, usually diagnosed as macro-adenoma. The aim of our research was to analyze the clinical and hormonal characteristics of NFPAs using Knosp and revised Knosp classifications. Furthermore, we aimed to assess the possibility of predicting surgical remission after surgery. This was a prospective descriptive-analytical study. We selected 30 patients with non-functioning pituitary adenomas by excluding all the clinical and biochemical evidence of hormone excess. Cavernous sinus invasion was evaluated by Knosp and revised Knosp classifications. The mean age was 50.8 ± 11.6 years, and 63.3% of the patients were women with a sex ratio F/M of 1.7. Patients with a Knosp grade greater than two experienced more symptoms, such as headaches (
