Pleomorphic Adenoma with a Novel Gene Rearrangement-LINC01606::PLAG1.
Review in Head and neck pathology, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 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
backgroundPleomorphic adenoma is a well-known benign salivary gland neoplasm characterized by the presence of varying proportions of three different components, including bi-layered ducts, myoepithelial cells, and admixed within a chondromyxoid/fibrous stroma.
methodWe report an interesting case of an adult male who presented with bleeding from an extensively degenerated parotid gland mass, concerning for a vascular neoplasm versus primary malignant tumor. Microscopically, majority of the viable tumor exhibited diffuse proliferation of spindle to epithelioid cells, with focal areas depicting cribriform glands, ducts, and scant chondromyxoid stroma.
resultNext-generation sequencing (NGS) RNA-based fusion panel analysis identified a gene rearrangement involving the pleomorphic adenoma gene 1 (PLAG1), with a novel, cryptogenic fusion partner known as LINC01606; [LINC01606::PLAG1; inv(8;8)(8q12.1;8q12.1)].
conclusionTo the best of our knowledge, this is the first documented case of a long non-coding RNA (lnc-RNA) serving as a rearrangement partner with the PLAG1 gene. We reviewed the molecular characteristics of this entity and explored the potential role of LINC01606::PLAG1 in the tumorigenesis of pleomorphic adenoma.
