MAML2 gene rearrangement occurs in all Warthin-like mucoepidermoid carcinoma: A reappraisal in a series of 29 cases.

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
Background: Warthin-like Mucoepidermoid carcinoma (MEC) is a new and rare morphological variant of MEC, with only a few case reports in the literature. The clinicopathological, molecular features and bio-behaviors of Warthin-like MEC has not been studied extensively. We reappraisal all Warthin-like MEC patients diagnosed and treated at our hospital. Methods: Patient characteristics including clinicopathological features, genetic aberrations, treatment, and prognostic information were assessed and evaluated. Results: Twenty-nine Warthin-like MEC patients were identified, 19 patients were female (65.5 %), and 10 were male (34.5 %). The patients' age varied widely from 8 to 68 years (mean 42.3 years). Genetic aberrations of Conclusion: Our data suggested that most Warthin-like MEC exhibited mild clinicopathological course and less aggressive bio-behavior, and an aggressive bio-behavior seemed to be very rare. In addition, in the salivary gland, MAML2 rearrangement seems to be a unique molecular feature of salivary Warthin-like MEC.
