Incidental diagnosis of a rare endobronchial schwannoma in a 7-year-old girl: A case report.

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 are nerve sheath tumors that arise from Schwann cells and are mainly benign. The likelihood of endobronchial schwannoma amongst all intrapulmonary tumors is up to 0.2% and mainly presents late. This study described a pediatric endobronchial schwannomas case discovered incidentally during rigid bronchoscopy. This case is uncommon, and its report can help physicians diagnose the same cases. The case was a 7-year-old girl presenting with fever and cough who had no history of pulmonary disease or relevant family history. Physical examination, chest radiography, CT scan, and bronchoscopy were performed on the patient. A biopsy was taken from the observed mass obstructing the bronchus during bronchoscopy. The mass was resected. Pathology revealed low-grade spindle cell neoplasm and confirmed schwannoma in immunohistochemistry. Endobronchial schwannomas can happen in children presenting with simple symptoms. For benign lesions, the prognosis is generally good. Due to the slow growth of these tumors and the potential for recurrence after resection, long-term follow-up may be needed.
