Auriculotemporal Carcinoma - A Retrospective Case Series.
Article in Annals of maxillofacial surgery. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
Rationale: Eleven cases with auriculotemporal cancer were reviewed for prognostic analysis. Patient Concerns: Follow-up ranged from 1.2 to 12 years (median 5.01 years). Diagnosis Treatment and Outcome: Three patients with parotid gland carcinoma, out of those, two had chemoradiotherapy, died in the first 2 years of treatment. They were at stage T4 and tumour progressed with distant metastasis. Otorrhoea was the most common symptom in patients with primary temporal bone carcinoma. One patient with auricular carcinoma had a recurrence at the primary site 13 months after surgery. One patient with T1, two patients with T2 and one patient with T3 have completed a 5-year survival period. One patient with T1 and another one with T2 are still at a 2-year follow-up period with no recurrence. Take-Away Lessons: Complete resection is the treatment of choice. Post-operative radiotherapy is highly recommended. The most decisive prognostic indicator is the advanced stage. Early diagnosis has great importance.
