Small cell neuroendocrine carcinoma of nose and paranasal sinuses: a study of three cases with short review of the literature.

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
Primary small cell neuroendocrine carcinoma (SNEC) of nose and paranasal sinuses is an extremely rare malignant tumour known for its aggressive clinical course, high rate of recurrence and poor prognosis. Only 69 cases have been reported in world literature till March, 2006. This tumour usually occurs in elderly persons with main complaints being nasal obstruction, epistaxis, loss of visual acuity, exophthalmos, local pain and rarely tender swelling over the sinuses. Computerized tomography scan (CT) is essential to assess the size, extent of the tumour, evidence of bone destruction and infiltration to orbit and brain. Due to its rarity, the understanding of pathogenesis of the disease, diagnosis and ideal treatment have been difficult. The origin of the tumour is believed from basal cells of the olfactory mucosa. The present study deals with three cases of SNECs of nose and paranasal sinuses in elderly males, their clinical presentations, CT scan findings, histopathological diagnosis with short review of literature.
