Intraoral salivary duct cyst: Report of rare entity.

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 cysts (SDCs) are true cysts caused by obstruction of the salivary ducts and are rare in minor salivary glands. A 62-year-old male reported with a painless swelling in the left buccal mucosa for 2 years. Excision of the entire lesion was performed under local anesthesia following which histopathological examination was performed. Microscopically, a dilated salivary gland duct composed of 1-2 layers of cuboidal cells with intraluminal mucous plug was observed. Cystic lumen lined by mucous cells, squamous cells and ciliated cells was seen. Oncocytic metaplasia was also present at various places. Histopathologically, it was consistent with the diagnosis of SDC. Intraoral SDCs and mucoceles clinicopathologically mimic salivary gland neoplasms, making diagnosis difficult and subject to errors in treatment. It is important for oral and maxillofacial surgeons to include SDC in the differential diagnosis of swelling affecting buccal mucosa.
