Paraspinal Skip Lesion Encountered During the Resection of a Sacral Chordoma: A Case Report.
Article in Cureus, 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
We present the case of an 88-year-old man who underwent a resection of a sacral chordoma. During the resection, a paraspinal skip lesion was encountered. Ultimately, resection of the sacral chordoma was completed with no adjuvant radiation, and at 30 months postoperatively, there are no signs of metastasis or local recurrence. This case represents an unusual case of discontinuous skip lesions in the paraspinal muscles encountered during chordoma resection. In this instance, resection without adjuvant therapy was successful in preventing recurrence. Postoperatively, the patient should be monitored for metastasis and local recurrence with imaging locally as well as of the chest per institutional protocols.
