MALT Lymphoma of the Tongue in a Patient with Sjögren's Syndrome: A Case Report and Literature Review.

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
Sjögren's syndrome (SS) is a systemic chronic autoimmune disorder characterized by lymphocytic infiltration of the exocrine glands, as well as oral and ocular dryness. Among the late complications, malignant lymphoma is the most serious complication of SS. The risk of lymphoma in patients with SS has been estimated to be approximately 7-19 times higher than that in a generally healthy population. Although various histologic subtypes of lymphoma can occur in patients with SS, mucosa-associated lymphoid tissue (MALT) lymphoma accounts for 48-75% of malignant lymphomas that are frequently located in the parotid gland. However, MALT lymphoma affecting the tongue in patients with SS is extremely rare. Here, we share our experience with a unique case of MALT lymphoma of the tongue, originating from the minor salivary gland tissue in a patient with SS. Through this case report, we emphasize that MALT lymphoma should be considered in the differential diagnosis of a tongue mass in patients with SS.
