Lung schwannomas, an unusual entity: A series of five cases.
Article in Lung India : official organ of Indian Chest Society. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 10 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 are benign slow-growing tumours arising from the Schwann cells of the nerve sheath. They may arise anywhere in the course of the nerves in the body. The clinical presentations are non-specific, and when present in rare locations such as lungs, the diagnosis becomes difficult. The present case series describes the clinical presentation and diagnosis of five cases of lung schwannoma. The diagnosis was mainly assisted by the immuno-histochemical examination comprising markers such as S-100, Calretinin, CD34, CD56, Desmin, and EMA. A definitive diagnosis of benign nerve tumours in such rare locations may help in better pre-operative assessment and surgery for complete recovery of the patients.
