Benign Spinal Tumors.
Article in Advances in experimental medicine and biology, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 5 papers.
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
Benign spinal intradural tumors are relatively rare and include intramedullary tumors with a favorable histology such as low-grade astrocytomas and ependymomas, as well as intradural extramedullary tumors such as meningiomas and schwannomas. The effect on the neural tissue is usually a combination of mass effect and neuronal involvement in cases of infiltrative tumors. The new understanding of molecular profiling of different tumors allowed us to better define central nervous system tumors and tailor treatment accordingly. The mainstay of management of many intradural spinal tumors is maximal safe surgical resection. This goal is more achievable with intradural extramedullary tumors; yet, with a meticulous surgical approach, many of the intramedullary tumors are amenable for safe gross-total or near-total resection. The nature of these tumors is benign; hence, a different way to measure outcome success is pursued and usually depends on functional rather than oncological or survival outcomes.
