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

Adenoid cystic carcinoma (ACC) is among the most common primary malignant tumors of the salivary glands. The parotid, submandibular, and minor salivary glands are the predominant sites. Clinical presentation includes a slow-growing mass, often accompanied by pain and paresthesias. Distant spread of the tumor is common - most frequently to the lungs, followed by the bones and other sites such as the liver, brain, and soft tissue. Metastatic ACC involving the liver is exceedingly rare. Given the uncommon occurrence of hepatic metastasis in ACC, we present the case of a 54-year-old female with metastatic involvement of both the lungs and liver.
