Gastric Schwannoma Presenting as an Incidentaloma on CT-Scan and MRI.
Article in Gastroenterology research, 2010. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 16 papers, 1 of them a synthesis that pooled it.
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
A 67 year old female was referred because of an incidentaloma on CT-scan and MRI which showed a 5.0 cm large mass in the wall of the distal stomach. After an initial work-up which suggested a gastrointestinal stromal tumor (GIST), a partial gastrectomy with a Billroth II gastrojejunostomy was performed. The histological diagnosis was a schwannoma. Gastric schwannomas are rare tumors which comprise 0.2% of all gastric tumors and 4% of all benign gastric neoplasms with a peak of incidence in the 4th and 5th decade of life. Gastric schwannomas are usually asymptomatic, but can present with ulceration and/or gastrointestinal bleeding. Clinical, endoscopical, surgical, radiological and histological features of this case are described and the relevant literature is reviewed.
