Chronic Phenotypes Underlying Radiation-Induced Salivary Gland Dysfunction.
Review in Journal of dental research, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 12 papers, 1 of them a synthesis that pooled 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.
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
Head and neck cancer (HNC) is the sixth most diagnosed cancer, and treatment typically consists of surgical removal of the tumor followed by ionizing radiation (IR). While excellent at controlling tumor growth, IR often damages salivary glands due to their proximity to common tumor sites. Radiation damage to salivary glands results in loss of secretory function, causing severe and chronic reductions in salivary flow. This leads to the patient-reported sensation of dry mouth, termed
