Article in Cureus, 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
A woman in her fifty-seventh year appeared with a painless swelling on her left lower lip that had been present for three years. The size of the swelling was noticeably increasing in size over time. On examination, there was a lump that was firm, non-tender, and measured 2 cm x 1 cm above the lower lip. The oral cavity, as well as the intraoral mucosa, were normal and unremarkable in appearance. As fine-needle aspiration cytology revealed a spindle cell lesion, she had an excision biopsy performed, followed by bilateral advancement flap closure. Histopathological examination (HPE) revealed a schwannoma in the tissue sample. Schwannomas are rare, benign neural tumors originating from Schwann cells. They are mainly asymptomatic and have a moderate rate of growth. Excision is the recommended treatment for schwannomas. Proper surgical planning and postoperative monitoring are crucial for optimal wound healing and complete recovery.
