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
objectiveTo report a case of a schwannoma of nasopalpebral location, occurring in a human immunodeficiency virus (HIV)-positive patient. CLINICAL PRESENTATION AND
interventionA 55-year-old man presented with a nasopalpebral painless tumefaction, pneumopathy and HIV-related immunodepression after stopping combination antiretroviral therapy. Magnetic resonance imaging showed subcutaneous masses, with contrast enhancement of the left nose pyramid, internal cantus and inferior palpebral area, suspicious of Kaposi sarcoma. The resected specimen showed schwannoma histology, with tumor cells expressing S100 protein and WT1.
conclusionThe features of a rare case of facial schwannoma of nasopalpebral location in an HIV-positive patient are reported. The diagnosis may be difficult before microscopic examination, with imaging features suggesting a Kaposi sarcoma.
