Synchronous orbital and intracranial infantile hemangiomas: a case report and literature review.
Article in Frontiers in pediatrics, 2026. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. 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
Background: Solitary orbital and parasellar infantile hemangiomas (IHs) without cutaneous manifestations are exceptionally rare, posing significant diagnostic and therapeutic challenges due to the absence of management consensus. Case presentation: A 55-day-old female infant presented with progressive left-sided proptosis over the course of one month. Preoperative magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) revealed homogeneously enhancing masses in the left orbit (encasing the optic nerve) and the parasellar region, in which imaging characteristics resembled those of a meningioma. No cutaneous lesions or features of PHACE syndrome were identified. Following multidisciplinary team consultation, a single-stage left pterional approach for the simultaneous resection of both the orbital and parasellar lesions, with the aim of establishing a definitive histopathological diagnosis and relieving mass effect. Histopathological examination confirmed the diagnosis of cellular IH, which could be supported by characteristic morphology and positive immunohistochemical staining for GLUT-1 and CD31. Postoperative recovery was uneventful, with complete resolution of proptosis and no neurological deficits. Imaging confirmed total resection of both lesions. Conclusions: This case emphasizes that isolated intracranial/orbital IH should be included in the differential diagnosis of pediatric masses, even in the absence of skin involvement. When facing diagnostic uncertainty and significant symptomatology, surgical resection can be a safe and effective primary strategy, providing definitive diagnosis and immediate decompression.
