Bilateral parotid gland punctate calcifications in Sjögren's Syndrome: a case report.
Article in Radiology case reports, 2022. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. An erratum has been issued. Cited by 3 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
Sjögren's syndrome is a chronic autoimmune disorder characterized by mononuclear infiltration of exocrine glands, most commonly the lacrimal and salivary glands. While up to 34% of patients report bilateral parotid swelling, bilateral parotid sialolithiasis remains an exceptionally rare symptom. Here we present a patient who presents to the otolaryngology clinic with presentation of bilateral punctate parotid gland sialolithiasis prior to diagnosis of Sjögren's syndrome. Due to a wide array of clinical presentations frequently affecting the head and neck, otolaryngologists are often the initial providers for patients suffering from Sjögren's syndrome.
