Plexiform Schwannoma of the Foot: A Case Report.
Article in Cureus, 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
Plexiform schwannoma a rare subtype of schwannoma. Often presenting equally in males and females, especially in childhood. Although the causes are still unidentifiable, plexiform schwannomas are common in the head and neck regions. Hence, we present a case of plexiform schwannoma in a 14-year-old male with an uncommon location, specifically in the sole of the foot. Histopathological examination revealed features characteristic of plexiform schwannoma, including Antoni A and B areas, Verocay bodies and strong S100 positivity. The lesion was excised completely to reduce the risk of recurrence. Although these schwannomas are considered mostly benign, histological and immunohistochemical examination are necessary to rule out more sinister pathologies and guide management.
