Feasibility of Transoral Approach to Accessory Parotid Tumors.
Article in Cureus, 2019. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 4 papers.
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
Tumors of the accessory parotid gland are very rare. Surgical removal of an accessory parotid tumor is usually accomplished by superficial parotidectomy through an external neck incision. However, this procedure inevitably results in a neck scar. In this case, we performed complete excision of a parotid tumor via an endoscopic-assisted transoral approach. Resection of such benign tumors can be achieved with less morbidity by endoscope-assisted surgery with a nerve monitoring system. The field of transoral surgery will continue to expand with technological advancements.
