1 · What the graph read from it

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.

2 · The registry

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

Myoepithelial carcinoma (MC) is a rare type of carcinoma occurring mainly in the parotid gland, while other carcinomas occur in submandibular or the accessory glands of the oral cavity. They may arise from the glands of the respiratory tract. However, primary MC of the bone is extremely rare. In the present study, a rare case of a 41-year-old woman with MC in the maxilla bone was reported. Following misdiagnosis as a bone cyst, a local excision was performed. The patient then presented with an extremely high malignancy and showed no response to chemoradiation treatment. The bone cyst was thought to be MC, thus early diagnosis with complete surgical excision was highly important. After confirmation of MC, a secondary extensive surgery may be crucial, following the primary local surgical resection.
