A Rare Case of Granular Cell Tumor of the Anus.
Article in Clinical case reports, 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
Granular cell tumors (GCTs) are uncommon soft tissue neoplasms derived from Schwann cells that can arise from various regions of the body. The majority originate from the head and neck. They are rarely encountered in the gastrointestinal tract and even more rarely in the anorectal region. There is a paucity of literature with only a few case reports of GCT of the anus. We describe a 36-year-old African American male with a long-standing history of human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) infection, multiple perianal abscess and associated fistulas, and an ulcerated perianal lesion that revealed an anal GCT who was treated with excision and surveillance. Given that GCTs in the perianal region are extremely rare, a high index of suspicion of GCT of the anus is critical when patients present with anal masses, ulcers, or abscesses given the extremely poor prognosis of malignant GCTs.
