1 · What the graph read from 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.

2 · The registry

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

purposeThe present study aimed to provide the clinicopathological data of Brazilian patients with basal cell adenoma (BCA).

methodsRecords of BCA cases were retrospectively gathered from the Brazilian National Cancer Institute database between 1996 and 2006. All cases were histopathologically reviewed, and the clinicopathological data were collected from the patients' medical files. In addition, an English literature review about this tumor is also presented.

resultsOf 1127 salivary gland tumors identified, 30 were BCAs (2.7%). Women were more affected than men (70.0% vs. 30.0%), and the majority (60.0%) were elderly (> 65 years old). The parotid gland was the most frequent location affected (93.3%), followed by the upper lip (3.3%) and submandibular gland (3.3%). Fine-needle aspiration was the main procedure applied to establish a preoperative diagnosis of tumor; however, the results were not always consistent. Histopathologically, the trabecular pattern was the most common type seen (50.0%) among our BCA samples. Most patients underwent superficial or partial parotidectomy. Frey's syndrome was reported only in one case during the follow-up. No recurrence was noted in the present series. The literature review revealed a total of 213 reported cases of BCA in the period investigated.

conclusionsThis is the first case series of BCA reported in Brazil. As occurred in other previously reported series, the clinicopathological data of BCAs are similar and confirm that this type of tumor is rare, develops predominantly in the parotid gland, frequently affects older women, has an indolent behavior, and the affected patients have an excellent prognosis.
