Metastatic neuroblastoma of the mandible: a cytogenetic and molecular genetic study.
Article in European archives of oto-rhino-laryngology : official journal of the European Federation of Oto-Rhino-Laryngological Societies (EUFOS) : affiliated with the German Society for Oto-Rhino-Laryngology - Head and Neck Surgery, 2012. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 6 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
Neuroblastoma (NB) jaw metastases are rare. Here, we report on cytogenetic and genetic studies on metastatic NB to the mandible. A 7-year-old boy, with an abdominal neuroblastoma, presented with a mass of the left body of the mandible. Cytogenetic analysis of the original tumor and the mandibular lesion biopsies revealed similar heterogenous subclones with 42 ~ 47,XY,+der(1)(q11 → qter),-2,del(7)(q21.1 → qter),-8,-9,-10,-11,del(11)(q13.3 → qter),-13,-14,-15,-17, + 18-18,der(18)(?),+21,+m1,+m2,+m3,+m4,+m5,+m6,+m7[cp25]. The different markers were identified by SKY analysis. Most of the cells carried 3-6 of these translocations: der(1;21), der(2;9;17), der(2;15;18), der(2;15;Y), der(8;10), der(10;17). Molecular examination using Neuroblastoma MLPA kit (MRC-Holland) revealed gain of 1q25, 1q42, 2q33, 2p23, 2p24 (N-myc), and 21q22, and loss of 11q22, 11q23, 17p13, and 17q11. FISH analysis using N-myc probe showed high amplification levels of N-myc. The cytogenetic and molecular genetic work-ups revealed that the mandibular lesion is a metastasis of the original abdominal tumor and not a second primary caused by the aggressive treatment. Clinical parameters such as : patient's age, site of primary tumor and the mandibular metastasis, together with poor prognosis genetic markers explain the patient's short-term survival.
