Article in Case reports in pediatrics, 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
Background: Intracranial germ cell tumors (GCTs) are rare in the pediatric population. They are classified as germinoma and nongerminomatous and may secrete specific proteins such as Case: A 13-year-old boy presented with a first generalized tonic-clonic seizure after six months of headaches, vomiting, polyuria, and polydipsia. Examination showed pubertal penile length with peripubertal testes. Laboratory assessment revealed panhypopituitarism with suppressed gonadotropins and elevated testosterone. Brain magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) demonstrated bifocal lesions (pineal and suprasellar) with obstructive hydrocephalus. Cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) sample obtained via temporary external ventricular drain (EVD) showed a normal cytology, confirming a Conclusion: Discordant clinical and biochemical puberty (penile enlargement with small testes and high testosterone with suppressed gonadotropins) should prompt
