Cutaneous Granular Cell Tumor in a Middle-aged Woman: Clinicopathological Insights from a Rare Schwannian Neoplasm.
Article in Journal of mid-life health. 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
We report the case of a 51-year-old female with an unusual presentation of a cutaneous granular cell tumor (GCT) on the lower back. The lesion was asymptomatic, well-defined, and firm, with an initial clinical differential of dermatofibroma, pilomatricoma, or leiomyoma. Histopathological examination revealed a dermal tumor composed of large polygonal cells with granular eosinophilic cytoplasm and uniform nuclei, without atypia or necrosis. Immunohistochemistry confirmed the diagnosis with strong S100 and CD68 positivity. Due to tumor extension tumor extension to the deep resection margin, close follow-up was advised. Accurate diagnosis of cutaneous GCTs relies on histopathology and immunohistochemistry, as clinical and dermoscopic findings are often nonspecific. Complete surgical excision is the primary treatment, with a generally favorable prognosis. Awareness of malignant potential and proper surgical management is crucial for optimal outcomes.
