Successful Treatment with Radiation Therapy in an Older Patient with Endobronchial Schwannoma.
Article in Case reports in oncology. 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
Bronchial schwannoma is extremely rare, accounting for a small percentage of benign bronchial tumors, with no determined standardized treatment. An 89-year-old woman with a persistent cough underwent CT scan which revealed a tracheal tumor. A diagnosis of endobronchial schwannoma was confirmed based on tissue obtained by high-frequency snare polypectomy. A hybrid stent was implanted in the trachea due to tumor regrowth; however, stent migration occurred, and it was removed after 1 month. Subsequently, radiation therapy was performed, and airway patency was well maintained for over 3 years. In general, surgical resection is recommended for endobronchial schwannoma; however, due to the age of this patient, resection was deemed invasive. Therefore, radiation therapy was administered as an alternative treatment.
