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

purposeThe association between salivary gland carcinomas and adjacent osseous changes in the head and neck region is not clear. We evaluated the frequency and imaging features of such changes and investigated the specific characteristics of salivary gland carcinomas associated with them.

methodsA total of 118 patients with histologically proven salivary gland carcinomas were retrospectively reviewed. The imaging characteristics of osseous changes were sorted into three categories based on computed tomography images: sclerotic change, erosive change, and lytic change. The frequency of all these osseous changes and any one of them was compared between different pathologies using Fisher's exact test. Odds ratios were calculated to evaluate the association between these changes and perineural spread.

resultsOsseous changes were found in 21 (18%) of 118 cases. Among these, seven (6%) cases were with sclerotic, nine (8%) with erosive, and nine (8%) with lytic changes (four with mixed change). Adenoid cystic carcinoma showed a significantly higher frequency of sclerotic and erosive changes, and either osseous change, than the other salivary gland carcinomas (p < 0.001 for each). Sclerotic changes were only present in the adenoid cystic carcinomas. Perineural spread was a significant factor in showing higher osseous change frequencies (odds ratio = 3.98, p = 0.006).

conclusionAmong salivary gland carcinomas in the head and neck region, adenoid cystic carcinomas had a significantly higher frequency of adjacent osseous changes, especially sclerotic changes, than other salivary gland carcinomas.
