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

Pleomorphic adenoma (PA) of the parotid gland is considered one of the commonest benign salivary gland neoplasms in both adults and pediatrics. However, metastatic pleomorphic adenoma (MPA) is extremely rare. In the past three decades, multiple cases were reported in the literature of MPA, where the metastatic phase has been preceded by a local recurrence for the majority of the cases. Metastases to the lungs, liver, bone, head and neck were reported. This paper will discuss a rare case presentation of MPA that metastasised solely to the face and scalp subcutaneous tissue with no other sites of metastases in a male adult.
