Primary salivary gland tumors of the lung: Two cases date report and literature review.
Article in Respiratory medicine case reports, 2021. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 9 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
backgroundPrimary salivary gland-type tumors of the lung (PSGTTL) is a rare intrathoracic malignant tumor that accounts for all lungs <1% of tumors. PURPOSE: To introduce two case reports of primary lung salivary gland tumors, and highlight their diagnosis and treatment challenges. CASE REPORT: The first case was a 30-year-old female, who complained of repeated coughing and dyspnea for 1 year and worsening for 2 days. Chest CT and bronchoscopy showed new organisms in the lower part of the trachea, that the bronchus obstruction accounted for 70%. The biopsy histology revealed a adenoid cystic carcinoma. She underwent extensive surgical resection and multiple radiotherapy, and She is recovering well from follow-up. The second case was a 70-year-old man, who complained of intermittent sputum blood for 2 years, worsening hemoptysis and chest tightness for 3 months. The new organisms was found in the upper trachea from Chest CT and bronchoscopy, and histological biopsy was used to diagnose epithelial myoepithelial carcinoma. He underwent twice bronchoscopy thermal ablation treatments. The follow-up is currently in good condition.
conclusionPrimary lung salivary gland tumors are considered to be rare malignant tumors in the lungs. Early detection is advocated as late presentation with advanced tumor presents diagnostic and therapeutic challenges.
