Cervical Vagal Schwannoma: A Case Report and Literature Review.
Article in Clinical case reports, 2025. 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
Vagal schwannoma is a benign tumor that can occasionally develop into malignant degeneration from the Schwann cells surrounding the cranial, peripheral, and autonomic nerves. The schwannomas arising in the head and neck region are rare, and rarer is their origin from the cervical vagus nerve. Despite being challenging, multiple treatment options are available, including observation, complete tumor excision with nerve transaction, and nerve preservation, depending on clinicoradiological factors. The cervical vagal schwannoma is a rare entity. We report a rare case of a 50-year-old female with painless swelling on the right side of the neck associated with mild discomfort during swallowing, diagnosed as cervical vagal schwannoma.
