Traumatic thoracic extradural cyst - surgical management and literature review.
Review in Romanian journal of morphology and embryology = Revue roumaine de morphologie et embryologie. 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
Extradural arachnoid cysts (EACs) are rare, fluid-filled lesions located outside the dura mater, predominantly found in the thoracic spine. While many remain asymptomatic, their progressive enlargement may lead to significant neurological deficits due to spinal cord compression. This case report describes a 43-year-old patient presenting with incomplete paraplegia (Frankel grade C) due to a thoracic EAC at the T5-T6 level. Surgical management involved laminectomy, complete cyst excision, and dural defect repair, leading to neurological improvement. The discussion reviews current diagnostic and therapeutic approaches, emphasizing the importance of early intervention to optimize patient outcomes.
