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

Purpose: Polymorphous low-grade adenocarcinoma is a tumor of the salivary glands that typically localizes within the oral cavity. We present a case of isolated third cranial nerve palsy as the initial presentation of polymorphous low-grade adenocarcinoma involving the left cavernous sinus in a patient status post glaucoma surgery. Observations: A 68-year-old woman status post glaucoma drainage device implantation in her left eye presented with an isolated left third nerve palsy ten weeks postoperatively. Differential diagnoses included microvascular ischemic neuropathy, postoperative ptosis, and compressive mass. MRI revealed a left cavernous sinus mass, and subsequent excisional biopsy revealed a diagnosis of polymorphous low-grade adenocarcinoma. Conclusions: There are few cases reporting polymorphous low-grade adenocarcinoma originating from and extending beyond the nasopharynx. This report emphasizes an unexpected neuro-ophthalmic manifestation of this salivary gland tumor.
