Treatment of HER2+ metastatic salivary ductal carcinoma in a pregnant woman: a case report.
Article in Oxford medical case reports, 2019. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 5 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
Salivary duct carcinoma (SDC) is a rare and aggressive malignancy with a high mortality and poor response to treatment in the advanced setting. Human epidermal growth factor 2 (HER2) can be amplified in a fraction of SDC. We describe the case of HER2+ metastatic SDC of the submandibular gland in a young pregnant woman treated by multimodal treatment (chemotherapy, radiotherapy and targeted therapy). During pregnancy, a 27-year-old woman developed SDC of the left submandibular gland with lung and bone metastases. Given the HER2 overexpression, she was treated with trastuzumab, paclitaxel and cisplatin. Since the tumor had arisen during pregnancy, triptorelin was administered after delivery. A complete remission was observed, and after eight cycles of chemotherapy, radiotherapy was started in association with trastuzumab and triptorelin. A prolonged disease control and complete visceral remission were observed. Multimodal therapy based on patient's tumor characteristics showed good clinical efficacy in the treatment of metastatic SDC.
