Chronic Submandibular Sialadenitis: A Case Report.
Article in Cureus, 2026. 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
Sialoliths are mineralized deposits of calcium salts, primarily calcium in the form of hydroxyapatite, a smaller percentage of potassium, magnesium whitlockite, brushite, and ammonium. Sialoliths result in sialadenitis when they obstruct salivary flow within the lumen of the duct, resulting in inflammation of the salivary gland. This article highlights the clinical signs and symptoms of submandibular sialadenitis caused by a sialolith in a 22-year-old male and the importance of a non-invasive retrieval method for submandibular sialolith. The technique involves milking or directly massaging the submandibular salivary gland by bimanual palpation, effectively preventing invasive surgical procedures of submandibular gland excision.
