Intrapulmonary Schwannoma: A Rare Case Report and Review of the Literature.
Article in Sage open pathology. 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
Schwannoma is a benign, well-circumscribed, and encapsulated peripheral nerve sheath tumor that develops from Schwann cells. The growth pattern is usually slow, tending to clinical indolence. Primary pulmonary neuronal tumors are very rare, accounting for ~0.2% of all lung neoplasms, and are often misdiagnosed due to their nonspecific radiological features. A 50-year-old man presented with a large cystic mass in upper lobe of left lung discovered incidentally on chest X-ray during work up after a blunt chest trauma. Gross examination of the mass following surgical excision revealed a well-circumscribed, encapsulated creamy-gray cystic lesion with gelatinous material measuring 10.5 × 6 × 5.5 cm, attached to a segment of lung. Microscopically, the tumor showed hypo- and hypercellular areas with proliferation of elongated wavy cells in a myxoid background which is characteristic of Schwannoma. Despite intrapulmonary schwannomas' rarity, it is essential to consider schwannomas in the differential diagnosis of pulmonary masses, particularly when clinical and radiological findings suggest a well-defined, encapsulated lesion.
