Review in European archives of oto-rhino-laryngology : official journal of the European Federation of Oto-Rhino-Laryngological Societies (EUFOS) : affiliated with the German Society for Oto-Rhino-Laryngology - Head and Neck Surgery, 2017. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 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
Schwannoma or neurilemmoma is a benign encapsulated slow-growing tumor that originates from a Schwann cell of a nerve, and is rare at intraoral locations. Different histological variants of schwannomas have been described, of these degenerative or ancient schwannoma is probably one of the least common in the oral cavity with only 16 previously reported cases, of which only one has been described in palatal location. Although ancient schwannoma shows particular characteristics, it is difficult to diagnose based on clinical and imaging appearance alone; as a result, morphological examination assisted by ancillary techniques is necessary to establish a definite diagnosis. We present a clinicopathological description of this rare variant of schwannoma, located in an unusual intraoral site, of a 26-year-old female. We illustrate the optical, immunohistochemical and ultrastructural characterization that aid diagnosis, as well as providing a review of the relevant published data of this unusual tumor.
