A case of mammary analogue secretory carcinoma of the parotid gland: A case report.

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
rationaleMammary analogue secretory carcinoma is a low grade salivary gland malignancy, first described by Skalova et al in 2010. The histological, immunohistochemical, and molecular characteristics of this tumor resemble those of secretory carcinoma of the breast. PATIENT CONCERNS: A 40-year-old male patient without any specific past history came with complaints of 4 cm-sized hard, fixed, right infra-auricular mass without tenderness. There was no enlarged or enhancing lymph node in both neck. DIAGNOSES: Fine needle aspiration biopsy was done for right parotid mass and pathologic report was "lymphocytes only" that suggested benign or low-grade malignant parotid tumor.
interventionsPartial parotidectomy including mass excision was performed. Operative finding showed hard bluish mass located in deep lobe of right parotid gland. OUTCOMES: Final pathologic report revealed secretory carcinoma of parotid gland. Homogenous eosinophilic secretions were identified inside microcystic structure. The immunophenotype was positive for epithelial membrane antigen, vimentin, S-100 protein. After 15 months of the surgery, the patient showed negative evidence of disease state. LESSONS: We present here a case of mammary analogue secretory carcinoma of the parotid gland to help further characterize this rare tumor.
