Tumors of the Brachial Plexus: A Critical Analysis Review.
Review in JBJS reviews, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper.
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
» Tumors of the brachial plexus are uncommon and can present as a mass, with or without neurological symptoms. At times, asymptomatic tumors are also picked up incidentally when imaging is performed for other reasons.» Magnetic resonance imaging is the main imaging modality used to evaluate tumors of the brachial plexus. Other imaging modalities can be used as required.» Benign tumors that are asymptomatic should be observed. Excision can be considered for those that are found to be growing over time.» Biopsies of tumors of the brachial plexus are associated with the risk of nerve injury. Despite this, they should be performed for tumors that are suspected to be malignant before starting definitive treatment.» For malignant tumors, treatment decisions should be discussed at multidisciplinary tumor boards, and include both the oncology and peripheral nerve surgical team, musculoskeletal radiology, neuroradiology, and general radiology.
