Squamous Metaplasia in a Schwannoma: A Unique Histologic Finding.
Article in Cureus, 2024. 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 benign peripheral nerve sheath tumors that originate from Schwann cells and characteristically display a biphasic appearance of compact hypercellular and myxoid hypocellular areas, named Antoni A and Antoni B areas, respectively. While most schwannomas arise sporadically, they can be associated with familial tumor syndromes such as neurofibromatosis type 2 and Carney complex. Herein, we report a case of a 61-year-old female who had a schwannoma resected from her upper extremity that later revealed a focus of squamous metaplasia associated with the schwannoma, a finding that has not yet been reported in the literature. This unique finding may aid pathologists in the future when confronted with such an atypical presentation in a schwannoma.
