Insights from literature of esophageal mucoepidermoid carcinoma in a female: A rare case report.
Article in World journal of clinical cases, 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
backgroundThis case report enhances the medical literature by presenting a rare instance of primary esophageal mucoepidermoid carcinoma (MEC), highlighting its unique histological features and the challenges in diagnosis that can arise due to its similarities with other esophageal cancers. CASE SUMMARY: A 58-year-old female presented with dysphagia and was initially misdiagnosed with squamous cell carcinoma. Upon further evaluation, upper gastrointestinal endoscopy revealed a 1.5 cm lesion in the distal esophagus. The patient underwent partial esophagectomy, and histopathological examination confirmed the diagnosis of primary esophageal MEC with no lymph node metastasis. The patient has been under observation for 5 months post-surgery without adjuvant therapy.
conclusionAwareness of MEC is essential for accurate diagnosis and management due to its rarity and potential for misdiagnosis.
