1 · What the graph read from it

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.

2 · The registry

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

The treatment of relatively rare malignancies, such as those of the salivary glands and iodine refractory thyroid cancer, has been invigorated by the development of novel molecular targeting agents. Accrual to clinical trials for these disease sites continues to be limited by their relatively low incidence. Nonetheless, multicenter collaborations have contributed greatly to the development of a number of emerging systemic therapies. This article briefly summarizes the epidemiology and pathogenesis of salivary gland and thyroid cancer, and then describes some of the new drugs under evaluation for these malignancies.
