A rare simultaneous coexistence of pancreatic gastrointestinal stromal tumor and esophageal schwannoma: a case report and review of literature.
Article in Frontiers in oncology, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 papers.
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
The concurrent presence of gastrointestinal stromal tumor and schwannoma is extremely rare, and its pathological characteristics remain unclear. This case report reported the diagnostic and treatment process of a patient with a pancreatic GIST coexisting with esophageal schwannoma, who was admitted to West China Hospital (Sichuan, China) in April 2015. The patient did not undergo surgical resection of the tumor but instead received an 8-year regimen of imatinib therapy, during which no tumor progression was observed. However, the patient developed pleural effusion as a result of the localized enlargement of the esophageal schwannoma, which exerted pressure on the right inferior pulmonary vein. This case report provides valuable clinical insights into this distinctive disease presentation.
