Outcome-oriented clinicopathological reappraisal of sinonasal adenoid cystic carcinoma with broad morphological spectrum and high MYB::NFIB prevalence.
Article in Scientific reports, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 4 papers.
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 (AdCC) is a salivary gland neoplasm that infrequently appears in the sinonasal region. The aim of this study was to evaluate the outcome and clinicopathological parameters of sinonasal AdCC. A retrospective analysis was conducted on all cases of AdCC affecting the nasal cavity or paranasal sinuses between 2000 and 2018 at the University Hospital Zurich. Tumor material was examined for morphological features and analyzed for molecular alterations. A total of 14 patients were included. Mean age at presentation was 57.7 years. Sequencing revealed MYB::NFIB gene fusion in 11/12 analyzable cases. Poor prognostic factors were solid variant (p < 0.001), histopathological high-grade transformation (p < 0.001), and tumor involvement of the sphenoid sinus (p = 0.02). The median recurrence-free survival (RFS) and OS were 5.2 years and 11.3 years. The RFS rates at 1-, 5-, and 10-year were 100%, 53.8%, and 23.1%. The OS rates at 1-, 5-, and 10- years were 100%, 91.7%, and 62.9%, respectively. In Conclusion, the solid variant (solid portion > 30%), high-grade transformation, and sphenoid sinus involvement are negative prognostic factors for sinonasal AdCC. A high prevalence of MYB::NFIB gene fusion may help to correctly classify diagnostically challenging (e.g. metatypical) cases.
