Excising Parotid Benign Mass With a Minimal Incision.
Article in Cureus, 2022. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
We report a case of a 30-year-old man who presented with a one-year history of a right-sided parotid mass that was asymptomatic but slowly increasing in size. On examination, there was a 2 × 2 cm superficial, soft, painless, and mobile mass in the right parotid region. Computed tomography revealed a benign mass in the right parotid tail measuring 2 × 3 cm, and a fine needle aspiration biopsy revealed a Warthin's tumor. The patient was managed surgically using a new approach that involved complete excision of the mass via minimal cosmetic incision parotidectomy. Parotidectomy was performed using an incision that only involved the pre- and postauricular areas over the sulcus without any extensions, and the operation proceeded smoothly without any complications. The patient was discharged without postoperative complications.
