Kimura Disease Presenting with Buccal Mass: A Case Report and Literature Review.
Review in Head and neck pathology, 2021. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 11 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
A 52-year-old man with a 2-year history of left buccal swelling was admitted to our department. An elastic hard oral mass was palpated under the intact buccal mucosa. A CT scan with enhancement revealed a solid mass measuring 2.0 × 1.5 × 1.3 cm between the left masseter muscle and the maxilla. Laboratory examination showed elevated peripheral blood eosinophil count of 1070/μL (12.3%) and serum immunoglobulin (Ig)E level of 1374 IU/mL. Histologic examination of transorally excised mass revealed lymphoid follicular hyperplasia with reactive germinal centers and eosinophilic infiltration with eosinophilic micro-abscesses in the germinal centers. Abundant IgE deposition in a reticular fashion was observed in the germinal centers and c-kit positive mast cells was observed in the paracortical area in the excised mass. The patient was diagnosed with Kimura disease (KD) and treated with oral prednisolone, tapering from 10 mg/day for approximately 8 months. Eosinophil count and serum IgE level decreased to 435/μL (5%) and 520 IU/dL, respectively. He is free from symptoms at the time of this submission. KD, a rare, benign, and chronic inflammatory disorder, occurs predominantly in young male adults in Asia. Patients with KD who presents with buccal mass are relatively rare. Immunohistologic analyses suggested that an allergic reaction played an important role in the etiology of KD in this case.
