A case report of myxoma within the right submandibular muscle and a literature review.
Article in Frontiers in surgery, 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
Objective: To investigate the etiology, clinical presentation, management, and prognosis of intramuscular myxoma occurring in the submandibular region. Methods: A case of intramuscular myxoma originating from the mylohyoid muscle was analyzed. The patient's clinical history, imaging features, surgical findings, and pathological results were reviewed. Relevant characteristics were summarized in the context of previously published literature. Results: The patient presented with a painless mass in the submandibular area. Computed tomography revealed a cystic lesion, and postoperative histopathological examination confirmed the diagnosis of intramuscular myxoma. The patient recovered well following surgical excision. Conclusion: Intramuscular myxoma is a rare benign soft-tissue tumor, with an estimated incidence of approximately 0.10-0.13 per 100,000 individuals. Lesions arising in the submandibular muscles are exceptionally uncommon and may be misdiagnosed as sublingual gland cysts. Due to the nonspecific clinical manifestations and potential for misdiagnosis on imaging, histopathological evaluation remains the definitive diagnostic method. Complete surgical excision is the treatment of choice and is generally associated with a favorable prognosis.
