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

Peripheral nerve sheath tumors are a heterogenous group of predominantly benign tumors of neurogenic origin that arise outside of the central nervous system and include schwannomas and neurofibromas. These tumors often occur sporadically, however multiple lesions are generally associated with genetic syndromes such as neurofibromatosis (type 1 and 2) and schwannomatosis, and occasionally these tumors and their malignant variations are associated with a history of radiation treatment. Multiple benign schwannomas in an irradiated field have seldom been reported in the literature. We describe a case of a 49-year-old male with a history of right sided irradiated testicular cancer who presented with 2 histologically confirmed benign schwannomas in the right pelvic wall and right psoas muscle.
