Diagnostic value of CT perfusion imaging for parotid neoplasms.

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
objectivesTo assess the value of CT perfusion imaging in the differentiation of different histological categorization of benign tumours from malignant tumours in patients with parotid neoplasms.
methodsCT perfusion was successfully performed in 62 patients with parotid neoplasms whose diagnoses were confirmed by surgery or biopsy. The software generated a tissue time-density curve (TDC) and measured blood volume, blood flow, mean transit time and capillary permeability surface product. One-way ANOVA and receiver operating characteristic curves were used to analyse the difference and diagnostic efficacies of all perfusion data between each one of the benign tumours and malignancies. Statistical significance was assigned at the 5% level.
resultsPleomorphic adenomas mainly had a gradually ascending TDC. Warthin tumours showed a fast ascent followed by a fast descent. The TDC of basal cell adenomas had a fast ascension followed by a plateau, then a gradual descent. Malignant tumours mainly showed a rapidly ascending curve with a stable plateau. Significant differences were observed in blood flow, blood volume and mean transit time between pleomorphic adenomas and malignant tumours (p < 0.05) as well as in blood flow and blood volume between the Warthin tumours, the basal cell adenomas and the malignant tumours (p < 0.05). Differences in permeability surface between the basal cell adenomas and malignant tumours were significant (p < 0.01).
conclusionCT perfusion of parotid gland could provide TDC and perfusion data, which were useful in the differentiation of different histological benign tumours and malignant tumours in the parotid gland.
