Gastrointestinal tract schwannomas and brief review of literature.
Article in Turkish journal of surgery, 2021. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 6 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
Schwannomas originating from Schwann cells arise from the peripheral nerve sheath and are slow-growing, benign tumors that originate mostly from the mesenchyme. It appears equally in both sexes. Schwannomas are often seen in the 3rd and 5th decades of life. Schwannomas can be seen everywhere where peripheral nerves are seen. Gastrointestinal schwannomas constitute 2-6% of all submucosal masses, and the stomach is the most common region (60-70%). Endoscopic Ultrasound (EUS)-guided sampling of gastrointestinal submucosal lesions has made it possible to achieve preop- erative differential diagnosis. Patients diagnosed with gastrointestinal schwannomas between January 2005 and December 2017 were included in this study. Three out of six patients were females. Median age was 52.5 (44-76) years. Schwannomas were found in two patients in the gastric region, one patient in the appendiceal region, two patients in the colon and one patient in the perianal region. Primary schwannomas are usually benign. Radical resection with free margin is necessary because of the risk of malignant degeneration; chemo and radiotherapy response is indeterminate, and local recurrence rates are high.
