Encapsulated Sinonasal Schwannoma Mimicking an Antrochoanal Polyp.

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
Extracranial schwannomas are uncommon neoplasms of the sinonasal tract arising from peripheral nerve shealth. Mostly acapsulated on histology, but few cases of encapsulated schwannomas have been reported. Its symptoms are nonspecific and initial clinical diagnosis is frequently missed. We report a 13-year-old boy with a huge, encapsulated sinonasal schwannoma initially thought to be an antrochoanal polyp. Computed tomography scan demonstrated a huge irregularly shaped mildly enhancing isodense mass in the right nasal cavity with lateral extension to the ipsilateral maxillary sinus, superior extension into the ethmoids and frontal sinuses and posteriorly into the nasopharynx. The tumour was completely excised via a lateral rhinotomy and patient is still on follow-up.
