A case report of parotid mammary analogue secretory carcinoma and reviews.
Article in International journal of surgery case reports, 2019. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 8 papers, 1 of them a synthesis that pooled 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.
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
introductionMammary analog secretory carcinoma (MASC) is a new diagnosis of head and neck tumors first reported in 2010. It was often misdiagnosed as salivary acinic cell carcinoma (AciCC). We present a patient with an asymptomatic parotid tumor that underwent deep lobe parotidectomy and postoperative radiation therapy. The final pathology showed MASC. CASE PRESENTATION: A 57-year-old male presented with an asymptomatic enlarging right parotid mass. A CT neck with IV contrast showed a 1.2 cm heterogeneously enhancing mass in the center of the right parotid gland without extraparotid extension. An FNA showed an epithelial neoplasm with papillary features. The patient underwent a right deep lobe parotidectomy with facial nerve dissection. The final pathology confirmed the diagnosis of MASC. He subsequently completed a 6-week course of radiation therapy and remained asymptomatic at his 30-month follow up. DISCUSSION/
conclusionAlthough MASC is considered a low-grade tumor in most cases, recurrence and disseminated disease are not uncommon. No standard treatment protocol has been established. This report aims to enhance the awareness of this diagnosis and provide a review of current treatments for head and neck oncology care providers.
