Sex-specific difference in treatment success/failure after vestibular schwannoma treatment.
Article in Neuro-oncology advances. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper.
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: Sex-related differences in patients with sporadic, unilateral vestibular schwannoma (VS) are poorly investigated so far, and it remains unclear whether biological sex affects treatment response to stereotactic radiosurgery ( Methods: This is a retrospective two-center cohort study. All consecutive patients treated for their VS between 2005 and 2012 were included. Previously treated VS and patients with neurofibromatosis were excluded. Clinical status and treatment-related complications were analyzed from both centers' prospective treatment registries. Recurrence/progression-free-survival was assessed radiographically by contrast-enhanced magnetic resonance imaging. Results: Within the entire patient cohort of Conclusions: Female sex was a negative prognostic factor for treatment success (long-term tumor control) if treated with
