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 is the most common benign salivary tumor involving the parotid gland. However, malignant transformation to carcinoma expleomorphic adenoma (CXPA) is an exceedingly rare occurrence. Malignant patterns reported with pleomorphic adenoma include CXPA, metastasizing pleomorphic adenoma, and carcinosarcoma. Firm mass in the parotid gland is the most common presentation of CXPA. Imaging appearances of CXPA are variable, and the proportion of carcinoma and adenoma components determine the appearance of the lesion on gross pathology. Histopathology remains the gold standard investigation for the confirmation of diagnosis. The treatment of CXPA includes ablative surgical procedure followed by reconstructive surgery. This case report describes the imaging appearances of a rare case of CXPA in a 19-year-old male.
