Plexiform Schwannoma of Brachial Plexus in Axilla: A Rare Case Report.
Article in Journal of musculoskeletal & neuronal interactions, 2023. 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
The most common tumours in the brachial plexus are benign schwannomas, followed by neurofibromas and malignancies, originating from the peripheral nerve sheath. The clinical manifestations of brachial plexus tumours are variable according to their location, extension, neurological elements involved and pathology. Brachial plexus tumours are rare in the upper extremity, and axillary schwannoma is uncommon. This case reports a 59-year-old woman with a tumour in her left axilla for two years, gradually enlarging with numbness in her left little finger. Microsurgical interfascicular dissection operation was performed to remove the tumour. Νumbness disappeared after the procedure, and no tumour recurrence was observed during the 30-month follow-up. To the best of our knowledge, plexiform schwannoma of the brachial plexus in the axilla has not been reported so far. In this article, such a case is reported, where this tumour was diagnosed by the histopathological examination and confirmed with immunohistochemistry.
