1 · What the graph read from it

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.

2 · The registry

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

Capillary hemangiomas are benign vascular lesions that frequently involve the soft tissues of the head and neck. Less commonly, these lesions can be found along the spinal neuroaxis. The differential diagnosis of a spinal intradural extramedullary lesion is led by meningioma and nerve sheath tumors. We present the case of a spinal capillary hemangioma mimicking a spinal meningioma and suggest this pathology should be considered in the differential diagnosis of similar lesions in the spinal intradural extramedullary space. This diagnostic consideration is important as it may impact treatment planning, surgical decision making, and complication avoidance.
