Hypertrophic Pachymeningitis Possibly Secondary to Otitis Media.
Article in Case reports in medicine, 2026. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper.
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
This study describes a 46-year-old female patient who initially presented with hearing impairment and subsequently developed a headache as the predominant symptom, accompanied by the involvement of multiple cranial nerves, including the optic, vestibulocochlear, and trigeminal nerves. Cerebrospinal fluid pressure progressively increased, and imaging demonstrated progression from unilateral to bilateral involvement of the tentorium cerebelli. Clinically, the patient's hypertrophic pachymeningitis was considered associated with otitis media. After receiving high-dose corticosteroid pulse therapy, the patient experienced marked relief of the headache and associated symptoms, which was presumed to be related to postinfectious immune-inflammatory mechanisms.
