Trigeminal Nerve Melanotic Schwannoma in Carney Complex.
Article in The Indian journal of radiology & imaging, 2022. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 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
Melanotic schwannoma (MS) is a rare peripheral nerve sheath tumor commonly found in the thoracic paraspinal region. It is present in an intracranial location rarely, with 18 out of 105 MS cases described in the literature. Trigeminal nerve was involved in only six of these cases. Fifty percent of psammomatous melanotic schwannoma (PMS) patients have Carney complex. Carney complex is an autosomal dominant disorder featuring peripheral nerve tumors (schwannomas), myxomas (heart, skin, and breast), skin pigmentation (lentigines and blue nevi), and endocrine tumors (adrenal, testicular, and pituitary). We present a case of left trigeminal nerve PMS as a part of Carney complex. Patient had diffuse lentiginosis. Magnetic Resonance Imaging revealed enhancing lesion along left trigeminal nerve with widened Meckel's cave and foramen ovale. Final diagnosis of PMS was derived on clinical, radiological, and histopathological findings with immunohistochemistry correlation.
