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

Myoepithelioma is a rare tumour accounting for 1-1.5% of salivary gland tumours, 21% of which occur in soft & hard palate. Cytologic features of these tumours are not well established leading to diagnostic pitfall in many cases on FNAC. However, as radiologic findings are overlapping and inconclusive in salivary gland tumours, preoperative cytologic diagnosis may help surgeons to plan surgery especially in patients requiring facial surgery. Here, we present a rare case of plasmacytoid myoepithelioma of the hard palate in an 11-year-old boy which was conclusively diagnosed on FNAC and further confirmed by histopathological and immunohistochemical studies. We have made an attempt to describe cytologic features of myoepithelioma with differential diagnosis of these tumours through review of literature.
