1 · What the graph read from it

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.

2 · The registry

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 slow growing, benign tumours arising from Schwann cells. They are usually solitary and are sometimes associated with Neurofibromatosis type 1 and 2. As reported by Okada et al., while approximately 25%-40% of extra-cranial schwannomas occur in the head and neck region, Schwannomas of the oral cavity are very uncommon, accounting for only 1% of all Schwannomas. We report a case of a sublingual schwannoma in a 47-year-old female, discovered incidentally during the workup for tinnitus. The radiological and histopathological findings, along with a literature review, are presented.
