Isolated Subcarinal Lymph Node Recurrence 24 Years After Treatment for Primary Tracheal Adenoid Cystic Carcinoma.

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
Adenoid cystic carcinoma (ACC) is a slow-growing malignancy characterised by late recurrence, making long-term follow-up essential. We report a case of 55-year-old woman who presented with exudative right pleural effusion and subcarinal lymphadenopathy after haematopoietic stem cell transplantation for myelofibrosis. She had undergone surgery and radiotherapy for primary tracheal ACC 24 years prior. Although haematologic disease-related conditions were initially suspected, endobronchial ultrasound-guided transbronchial needle aspiration of the subcarinal lymph node revealed isolated recurrence of ACC, with no evidence of pleural malignancy on pleural biopsy results. Because ACC progresses more slowly than many other malignancies, the growth rate alone does not reliably distinguish benign from malignant lesions. Therefore, a history of ACC should always be considered, and a tissue diagnosis should be pursued when clinically indicated.
