A Case of Cervical Intraneural Lipoma That Was Removed by Intercapsular Resection with No Resultant Postoperative Neurological Deficit.

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
Intraneural lipomas in peripheral nerves of cervical lesions are extremely rare and have not been previously reported. We present a 48-year-old male with a gradually increasing right cervical mass since 5 years. He visited our department because of pain and difficulty in raising the right upper limb. A tumor about 80 mm in size was palpable in the right neck along the cervical nerve. The tumor was suspected to involve fatty degeneration in schwannoma of cervical nerve origin, for which intercapsular resection was performed under general anesthesia. Histopathologically, bifurcated growth of mature adipocytes with sparse fibrous septa and lack of tumor proliferation of Schwann cells was observed on H&E staining, suggesting a diagnosis of intraneural lipoma. The patient had no new motor or sensory deficits postoperatively and with improvement in his preoperative symptoms.
