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

introductionWarthin's tumor, also known as papillary cystadenoma lymphomatosum, monomorphic adenoma, or adenolymphoma, is a benign cystic tumor of the salivary glands containing abundant lymphocytes and lymph node-like stroma. It is named after the pathologist Aldred Scott Warthin, who described two cases in 1929.

objectiveThe aim of this study is to analyze the pathogenesis of Warthin's tumor.

methodsA total of 15 patients with Warthin's tumor were studied. Hematoxylin and eosin stains, which have been used for at least a century and are still essential for recognizing various tissue types and the morphologic changes for cancer diagnosis, were used. Warthin's tumor was evaluated for the expression of MGMT, CD3, HSP90AA1, MMP-1, Bcl-2, CD79A, IgG, Ki-67, p53, IgM, OPN, S100, myeloperoxidase, and VEGF by immunohistochemistry.

resultsImmunohistochemical staining confirmed that the immune cells within the follicles of Warthin's tumor were positive for MGMT (10.0 ± 0.34%), Ki-67 (13.3 ± 0.45%), Bcl-2 (42.6 ± 8.33), and p53 (11.6 ± 2.3). The immune cells associated with CD3 were present at the stroma of residual cells (47.3 ± 3.89); however, they were not present in the epithelium cell layers. B cells (CD79A) consistent with germinal centers were present within the immune cells and formed follicles (43.2 ± 13.5%).

conclusionsHistopathological analysis of the stroma and parenchyma revealed balanced distribution of epithelial and stromal component. Epithelial component of the Warthin's tumor is the trigger for the tumor process. This study indicates that the Warthin tumor is a consequence of inflammatory etiology.
