A Rare Case of Salivary Duct Carcinoma at the Tip of the Tongue.

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
Salivary duct carcinoma (SDC) originating from the minor salivary glands is extremely rare. We report a case of SDC arising from the minor salivary gland tissue at the tip of the tongue. A 67-year-old man presented with a complaint of a mass and pain in the tip of the tongue. Magnetic resonance imaging showed a high-signal area isolated from the anterior lingual gland at the tip of the tongue. Since fine-needle-aspiration-cytology failed to diagnose a benign or malignant tumor, a diagnosis of suspected SDC was made by intraoperative rapid diagnosis, and the tumor was resected. The histopathological diagnosis was SDC. SDC is a high-grade malignant tumor of the salivary gland that is prone to local recurrence, lymph node metastasis, and distant metastasis. However, these results apply only to parotid and submandibular gland primary tumors, which occur more frequently. The prognosis of SDC of minor salivary gland primary tumors is not still clearly understood. In this report, the patient with SDC from the minor salivary gland tissue at the tip of the tongue had no recurrence or metastasis 14 years after the surgery.
