Idiopathic Optic Nerve Glioma: A Case Report.
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
Optic nerve gliomas are tumors that develop along the optic nerve pathway, most often classified as pilocytic astrocytomas. These growths are typically benign, especially in young children between the ages of one and six years, while the rarer malignant types are generally more aggressive and tend to appear in adults. Characteristically slow-growing, optic nerve gliomas are commonly located in the pre-chiasmal part of the optic nerve but can extend to post-chiasmal regions and into the brain if left untreated. We describe a case of a one-year-old boy who visited our ophthalmology clinic with symptoms of eye prominence and deviation in his right eye after undergoing chemotherapy. Clinical findings and additional assessments supported an optic nerve glioma diagnosis. This case underlines the significance of early detection and a collaborative approach among ophthalmologists, neurosurgeons, radiologists, and histopathologists for effective management and to limit disease progression.
