Chiasmatic syndrome caused by Rathke's cleft cyst: A case report.
Article in Molecular and clinical oncology, 2025. 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
A case report of a 70-year-old woman who had never suffered from any eye disease is presented. It was found that 2 weeks prior to the ophthalmological examination at another clinic 'something fell' into her right eye; she noticed a decline in the vision of her the left eye. On ophthalmologic examination Visual Acuity, Right Eye (VARE) was 0.4 and Visual Acuity, Left Eye (VALE): fingers at 1 m. Incipient cataracts in both eyes, more on the right. On optic nerve (ON) evaluation, the optic papilla cup-to-disk ratio (C/D) was=0.6 and 0.7, R/L, respectively. A total of 1 month after the first examination VARE was found: 0.4 and VALE: 0.16. The cataracts did not correspond to the decrease in visual acuity. an excavation on the right papilla (C/D=0.6) was found and the left papilla was atrophic (C/D=0.7). Otherwise, the fundus evaluation was normal. Incomplete upper temporal quadrantanopia on the right visual field (VF) and temporal hemianopia extending into the central part on the left VF were identified. An electrophysiological examination (pattern visual evoked responses) showed a marked decrease in amplitudes on the right and no prolongation of P100 latency; a non-excitable reaction was observed in the left. Our finding was chiasmatic syndrome with more significant impairment on the left side. Subsequent magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) was suspicious for Rathke's cleft cyst (RCC). A neurosurgical intervention was performed the week following MRI . Using a subfrontal approach via a small right frontal craniotomy, the tumor was released from surrounding neural structures and radically removed using microsurgical techniques. During the procedure, it was not completely clear whether it was RCC or a craniopharyngioma; the biopsy findings were consistent with RCC with xanthogranulomatous changes. The authors emphasize the importance of visual field examination in unclear visual disorders, as well as the importance of follow-up examinations to uncover recurrences.
