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

Hemorrhagic transformation of vestibular schwannoma following stereotactic radiation is a rare but serious complication. We report a case presenting with acute facial paralysis due to intratumoral hemorrhage 12 years after stereotactic radiosurgery. This case highlights hemorrhagic transformation as a potential cause of sudden neurological deterioration in previously irradiated vestibular schwannomas and underscores the importance of long-term MRI surveillance for early detection and timely intervention.
