Resection and Reconstruction of Cribriform Adenocarcinoma of the Posterior One-third of the Tongue - A Case Report.
Article in Annals of maxillofacial surgery. 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
Rationale: Cribriform adenocarcinoma of the tongue and minor salivary glands (CATMSG) is a very rare salivary gland tumour mimicking adenoid cystic carcinoma (AdCC) or polymorphous low-grade adenocarcinoma, impacting treatment, prognosis and management. Patient Concerns: A 71-year-old female presented with a painful, bleeding left tongue mass. An external biopsy reported AdCC. Diagnosis: A rebiopsy at our centre diagnosed the lesion as a classic CATMSG: cribriform architecture, pale overlapping nuclei and S-100/SMA positivity on immunohistochemistry. Treatment and Outcomes: Based on the revised diagnosis, the patient underwent composite resection, neck dissection and free flap reconstruction. Final pathology confirmed CATMSG (pT3 pN0) with perineural invasion. She recovered well and was referred for adjuvant radiotherapy. Take-away Lessons: This case highlights that an accurate distinction of CATMSG from AdCC is essential, as it mandates specific surgical and adjuvant strategies. Expert histopathological review is critical for optimal, tailored patient care.
