Giant planum sphenoidale meningioma: rationale for Dolenc's step in the pterional approach.

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
Large meningiomas of the midline anterior skull base do not respect anatomical boundaries. Therefore, a giant planum sphenoidale meningioma has the unique risk of simultaneously endangering the olfactory and visual functions. A pterional approach to such cases has several advantages, and the Dolenc's modification allows a complete extradural anterior clinoidectomy, early release of compressed optic nerve, and exposure of basal portions of the internal carotid artery with a possible operative corridor expansion. This enhances tumor resection ergonomics with a more basal angle of attack while visualizing the anterior-to-posterior expanse of the entire anterior skull base.
