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

backgroundBasaloid salivary tumors can demonstrate significant morphologic overlap and be challenging to diagnose.

methodsA review of select ancillary studies in basaloid salivary tumors was performed.

resultsA number of immunohistochemical stains, including PLAG1, HMGA2, β-catenin, MYB, and RAS Q61R, have been more recently incorporated into the diagnostic workup of basaloid salivary tumors.

conclusionsAlthough reported variability in their performance has perhaps limited their widespread adoption, these immunohistochemical studies can nevertheless be useful in supporting pathologic diagnoses, particularly when considered in more specific differentials or when used as a panel with other markers.
