Parotid carcinoma: Current diagnostic workup and treatment.
Article in Indian journal of surgical oncology, 2010. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 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
In this review we present recent progress in diagnostic workup, prognostic evaluation, treatment options and resulting outcomes. Whenever possible, complete resection remains the mainstay of treatment. Sacrifice of facial nerve branches is reserved for the clinically or electromyographically dysfunctioning facial nerve. Clinical or radiological neck disease demands combined surgery and radiotherapy. Treatment of the N0 neck is indicated for advanced stage-high grade tumors but the question remains unanswered whether this should be surgical or radiotherapeutic elective treatment. Surgery alone will cure low stage, low grade tumors, that show no additional negative prognostic factors following adequate resection. In all other tumors postoperative radiotherapy will improve locoregional control. This approach results in good locoregional control, in a way that distant metastasis remains the typical presentation of treatment failure. In this setting, the results of systemic treatment today remain limited, but a huge effort in the molecular biology field has been done to introduce targeted therapy into this domain of head and neck cancer. Disease control remains variable within the patient population. This variation can increasingly be predicted by systems that incorporate the combined information of multivariately identified and quantified prognostic factors into an individualized prognosis for the parotid carcinoma patient.
