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 (SCHs) are benign neural tumors originating from Schwann cells of the peripheral nerve sheaths. These neoplasms typically exhibit hyalinized vessels with impaired vascular permeability; however, angioma-like features are rare. We report an intriguing case of a cutaneous SCH with unusual vascular changes in a 60-year-old female who presented with a tender nodular lesion on her lower back. Histopathological examination of the excised lesion revealed a schwannoma with a central area of thrombosis and a vascular proliferative lesion consistent with Masson's hemangioma (MH). MH, also known as intravascular papillary endothelial hyperplasia (IPEH), is a rare benign vascular lesion characterized by papillary endothelial hyperplasia and obliterative changes within vascular lumens. Immunohistochemical staining confirmed S100 positivity in the SCH component and highlighted the papillary endothelial lining by ERG (erythroblast transformation-specific regulated gene 1). To our knowledge, this is the first report of a schwannoma harboring MH. This unique case underscores the potential for rare vascular proliferation to arise within otherwise typical SCHs.
