Benign glandular schwannoma.

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
We report a case of a benign glandular schwannoma in a 63-year-old male who presented with a solitary subcutaneous mass on the left knee, with no previous history of neurofibromatosis type 1. This histological subtype is rare, with only 38 cases reported in the literature. Some of the glands found in this patient resembled sweat glands. These lining stromal spindle cells were positive for S-100 but negative for EMA. S100 was faintly staining the glandular elements. All the glands in the tumor were positive for EMA, particularly at the luminal borders. They were also positive for pancytokeratin. The cystic areas variably show intraluminal, foamy, and hemosiderin-laden macrophages. The different glands expressed two patterns. Some of these were reactive for CK7 and low molecular weight keratin. Immunohistochemical workup is mandatory to assess the neoplastic nature of this glandular component.
