Secretory carcinoma in the parotid gland of a pediatric patient. A challenging diagnosis.
Article in Journal of oral and maxillofacial pathology : JOMFP. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 4 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
Secretory carcinoma is a rare, recently identified and recognized neoplasm in major salivary glands. Few cases have been described with only 16 pediatric cases in the literature. We present a case preoperatively identified as a benign parotid lesion whose management was delayed due to the COVID-19 pandemic. Post enucleation of the lesion, histology identified a secretory carcinoma. This led to further and more extensive surgery to ensure complete removal. Clinicians and histopathologists should be aware of secretory carcinoma in their differential, as a high index of suspicion is required to ensure appropriate investigations are performed to obtain the diagnosis. Early identification is important to allow timely appropriate surgery to be performed.
