Orbital malignant peripheral nerve sheath tumor: A case report and review.
Article in Oman journal of ophthalmology. 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
Malignant peripheral nerve sheath tumor of the orbit is an exceedingly rare entity. These tumors exhibit locally aggressive behavior, recurrences, distant metastasis, and poor response to existing treatment protocols. Orbital nerve sheath tumors are often associated with neurofibromatosis 1, and malignant transformation of neurofibroma into malignant nerve sheath tumor has also been seen. The recommended treatment for localized disease is radical or wide surgical excision to achieve negative margins followed by chemoradiation. For extensive disease, chemotherapy and radiotherapy can be utilized to stabilize the disease. Due to poor response and outcomes with current regimens, the focus has been shifted to approaches utilizing molecular targets and immunological agents. Despite all the advancements, the outcomes still remain discouraging for moderate- to high-grade lesions and thus necessitate studies to design promising treatment modalities.
