[Diagnostics and treatment of secondary malignancies of the parotid gland-An overview].
Review in HNO, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 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
backgroundSecondary malignancies of the parotid gland frequently have a cutaneous origin and the incidence in central Europe is increasing.
objectiveThe aim of this review article was to present the epidemiology, (differential) diagnostics and treatment of secondary malignancies of the parotid gland. MATERIAL AND
methodsA literature search of the current guidelines and evidence was carried out in the web-based databank PubMed.
resultsThe incidence of secondary malignancies of the parotid gland seems to be increasing in Europe, mainly due to a rising incidence of metastases of cutaneous squamous cell carcinomas. Except for malignant lymphomas, parotidectomy is the treatment of choice in the curative situation. In the absence of clear evidence, in the case of an intact facial nerve lateral or total parotidectomy with ipsilateral neck dissection seems to be indicated, depending on the entity of the secondary malignancy.
conclusionThe differential diagnostics of squamous cell carcinoma (in) of the parotid gland can be complicated. When a squamous cell carcinoma of the parotid gland is diagnosed for the first time, a dermatological full body examination and a detailed medical history should be taken with respect to skin tumors of the head and neck region. In addition to surgical treatment of the parotid gland and neck, adjuvant radiotherapy is usually indicated.
