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

backgroundTrigeminal schwannomas are rare, benign, slow-growing nerve sheath tumors. Endoscopic Transorbital Approach (ETOA) utilization has gained traction in recent years.

methodThe authors present a surgical video demonstrating the ETOA technique for resection of a Meckel's cave schwannoma with cavernous sinus extension via a superior eyelid incision, with relevant surgical anatomy discussed.

conclusionIn carefully selected patients, the ETOA is a safe and effective minimally invasive surgical option that can address lesions involving the Meckel's cave and cavernous sinus.
