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

purpose of reviewTo discuss the changing landscape and significant developments in the diagnosis and management of oropharyngeal squamous cell carcinoma. RECENT

findingsHigh-risk human papilloma viruses (HPVs) have been recognized as important causative factors for oropharyngeal cancer. The diagnosis is established with type-specific and broad-spectrum in-situ hybridization probes and/or p16 immunohistochemistry assays on fresh frozen paraffin-embedded tissue blocks. HPV-associated tumors have superior response and outcomes compared with HPV-unrelated tumors. Retrospective studies have been able to stratify oropharyngeal squamous cell carcinoma based on HPV status, tumor stage, nodal stage, and smoking history into risk groups with differing risks of death or distant disease. Selected patients, nonsmokers with less advanced nodal stage, may be overtreated with current treatment paradigms, and deintensification of curative therapy is a current research focus for these patients. Smokers, patients with advanced nodal or tumor stage, and those with HPV-unrelated cancers have a less favorable prognosis and the search for novel targets is particularly important for these patients. SUMMARY: The present review will highlight the current standards and the future direction of novel therapies in both HPV-associated and HPV-unrelated cancers.
