The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 10 papers, 1 of them a synthesis that pooled 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.
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 objective of this study is to identify a management or follow-up strategy for patients with laryngeal and oral dysplasia. A chart review of all patients with laryngeal and oral dysplasia over a 15-year period was performed. All patients were followed for a minimum period of 5 years from initial diagnosis of oropharyngeal or laryngeal dysplasia. If invasive carcinoma was demonstrated on subsequent biopsies, the exact time of this was recorded and Kaplan-Meier survival curves were plotted. In the laryngeal cohort, 45 patients were identified, 15 (33%) developed carcinoma, 7 of 30 patients (23%) with mild or moderate dysplasia, compared with 8 of 15 (53%) with severe dysplasia or CIS (P = 0.01). Thirteen of the carcinomas (87%) developed within 36 months of original biopsy. In the oral cohort, 32 patients were identified, 17 (53%) developed carcinoma, 1 of 9 patients (11%) with mild dysplasia, compared with 8 of 12 (67%) with severe dysplasia and 8 of 10 (80%) with CIS (P < 0.001). Fifteen of the 17 patients (88%) developed carcinoma within 36 months of original biopsy. In conclusion, although numbers are small, our results show that mild and moderate laryngeal dysplasia behaves differently to severe dysplasia and CIS. Mild oral dysplasia also behaves differently to severe dysplasia or CIS. In general, progress to malignancy happens within a 3-year period. Severe dysplasia or CIS should be managed aggressively.
