Schwannoma of the tongue.
Article in BMJ case reports, 2016. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 13 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
Schwannoma, neurilemmoma or neurinoma is a rare, benign nerve sheath neoplasm composed of Schwann cells. It is usually solitary, slow growing and asymptomatic. Approximately 1-12% of the tumours occur intraorally with the tongue being the most common location. We report a rare case of lingual schwannoma in a 20-year-old female patient involving the tip of the tongue, which was slow growing and asymptomatic. For diagnosis histopathological examination and also immunohistochemistry testing were carried out to confirm the nature of tissue fragments. The treatment was complete surgical excision.
