Neuroenteric cyst simulating an arachnoid cyst: A case report.
Article in Surgical neurology international, 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: Neuroenteric cysts (NC) are caused by an error in embryonic development, in which there is a failure in the separation between the notochord and the anterior intestine, leading to the formation of cysts, usually located in the cervicothoracic spine region. Case description: A 10-year-old male patient reported 20 days of neck pain. In the magnetic resonance imaging study, the lesion C2-C3 was homogeneously hyperintense on T1- and T2-weighted images. There was no restriction on diffusion-weighted imaging, with severe spinal cord compression. Surgery was suggested to remove the cyst to avoid potential neurological complications. C1-C2-C3 laminotomy and microsurgical excision of the lesion were the chosen paths. The cyst was dissected and revealed a light gray appearance and a content of clear hyaline fluid, suggestive of an arachnoid cyst. A histopathological examination of the cyst wall identified images suggestive of NC. Conclusion: The definitive diagnosis depends on the association between clinical findings, radiological study, and anatomopathological confirmation, which is an indispensable step in differentiating NC from other congenital or acquired conditions of the spinal canal.
