The Parotid Puzzle: A Case of Juvenile Recurrent Parotitis.
Article in Cureus, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
Juvenile recurrent parotitis is characterized by recurring, non-obstructive, non-suppurative parotid inflammation in children between the ages of one and 16 years. Usually occurring between the ages of three and five, this condition typically goes away around adolescence. It is an uncommon condition, and the cause of this rare illness is unknown, however it is most likely multifactorial. Although the swelling of the parotid tends to be unilateral, it can occur bilaterally, with one side being more affected than the other. We report a case of a five-year-old girl who had five episodes of recurrent parotid swelling. We present this case with the objectives of highlighting the symptoms and signs of this uncommon illness and emphasizing the importance of ultrasonography as a diagnostic tool.
