Abdominal Schwannoma Mimicking Lymph Node Metastasis in Rectal Cancer.
Article in Cureus, 2022. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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 rare benign tumors that are often asymptomatic and identified incidentally on imaging studies undertaken for another purpose. Schwannomas arising from the vestibular nerve are the most common site of identification; however, schwannomas can arise extracranially in any peripheral nerve tissue. Here, we present a case study of a patient with a localized rectal adenocarcinoma who was found to have a retroperitoneal schwannoma initially felt to be a lymph node metastasis of his rectal cancer. The diagnosis of schwannoma was confirmed via biopsy, which resulted in changes to the patient's overall management including radiotherapy volumes and recommendation against neoadjuvant or adjuvant systemic therapy.
