Sellar Dermoid Cyst Coexistence with Pituitary Adenoma/Pituitary Neuroendocrine Tumor.
Article in Journal of neurological surgery reports, 2026. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. An erratum has been issued. 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
Introduction: Collision tumors are extremely rare in the sellar region, less than 1 to 2% of sellar masses. Intracranial dermoid cyst is a rare, benign, slow-growing lesion accounting for 0.04 to 0.7% of all intracranial tumors. Sellar dermoid cysts are extremely rare; from 1976 to 2024, there were only 59 records of sellar dermoid cyst published in the English language. Coexisting sellar dermoid cyst and pituitary adenoma have not been reported in the literature. Case Presentation: A 51-year-old man having medical history of left traumatic optic neuropathy and acute lymphoblastic leukemia posttreatment with complete remission in 2018 suffered from intermittent dizziness and occasional unsteady gait with deviation to the left side for more than 6 months prior to visiting our hospital. His brain magnetic resonance imaging disclosed a mass lesion in the sellar region with suprasellar extension, and his preoperative hormone study showed hypopituitarism. After a thorough preoperative evaluation, he underwent an endoscopic endonasal transsphenoidal approach with the removal of the lesion and skull base reconstruction. The lesion was pathologically diagnosed to be a dermoid cyst with coexisting pituitary adenoma/pituitary neuroendocrine tumor. Conclusion: To our best knowledge, this is probably the first report of sellar dermoid cyst with coexisting pituitary adenoma/pituitary neuroendocrine tumor.
