Cerebriform Ridges on the Scalp Signaling a Tumor in the Brain.
Article in The Permanente journal, 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
Cutis verticis gyrata is an overgrowth of scalp tissue that manifests as symmetric cerebriform skin folds that can be primary or secondary due to an underlying endocrine, infectious, genetic, or inflammatory condition. The authors have reported a case of 62-year-old man presenting with longitudinal ridging of the scalp and acromegalic features who was found to have a pituitary tumor causing acromegaly and the rare cutaneous manifestation of cutis verticis gyrata. This case highlighted how initial detection by dermatology led to multidisciplinary care involving several specialties and the eventual neurosurgical intervention leading to biochemical cure and symptom improvement.
