A curious case of metastatic parotid adenoid cystic carcinoma to kidney.
Article in BMJ case reports, 2022. 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
A woman in her 60s presented with a 2-week history of non-specific left-sided abdominal pain. She previously underwent a total parotidectomy and adjuvant radiotherapy for left parotid adenoid cystic carcinoma 13 years prior, with a local recurrence 4 years after. Investigations revealed a large left-sided renal mass with appearances of renal carcinoma and no signs of metastatic disease. Pathology following nephrectomy revealed a metastatic adenoid cystic carcinoma.Metastatic disease recurred 11 months postradical nephrectomy to the contralateral kidney and lung, and she was referred to medical oncology for further management.This case history demonstrates the highly aggressive nature of an adenoid cystic carcinoma primary of salivary gland origin with rare metastasis to the kidney.
