Case Report: Dural infiltration of intervertebral disc material mimicking spinal cord meningioma in a dog.
Article in Frontiers in veterinary science, 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 six-year-old mixed-breed dog presented with a two-month history of peracute back pain and right hindlimb monoparesis. Neurological examination revealed reduced proprioceptive positioning of the right hindlimb, and palpation of the L2-L4 area elicited a pain response. Magnetic resonance imaging revealed a contrast-enhanced mass extending to the dura mater, located on the right ventral side of the spinal cord at the level of the L2-L3 vertebral bodies. A hemilaminectomy was performed to remove the mass. Histopathological examination revealed that the removed dura mater comprised intervertebral disc material that had infiltrated the dura mater. Postoperatively, the dog experienced temporary right hindlimb lameness, which resolved within 24 h. At three years and five months postoperatively, the dog was ambulatory without any neurological deficits or pain. This is the first report of dural infiltration of intervertebral disc material mimicking a spinal cord meningioma in a dog.
