[The value of supracricoid partial laryngectomy in moderately advanced laryngeal cancer (T3-T4a)].
Trial report in HNO, 2015. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper.
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
backgroundTransoral laser microsurgery (TLM) is the method of choice for partial laryngectomy in Germany. In advanced stages, chemoradiotherapy is increasingly indicated for organ preservation.
objectiveThis report considers the indications for and outcomes of supracricoid partial laryngectomy (SPL), also known as crico-hyoido-(epiglotto)-pexy, as an option for surgical organ preservation in moderately advanced laryngeal cancer (T3-T4a), in the well-defined gap between TLM and chemoradiotherapy protocols in Germany.
methodsRetrospective evaluation of functional and oncological outcomes of all SPLs conducted between 2008 and 2014. During this period, 17 SPLs with resection of rpT2 (n = 2), (r)pT3 (n = 11), and (r)pT4a (n = 4) were performed with resection of one arytenoid. Mean age was 58 years (range 47-75 years). In 5 patients, SPL was for a first or second local recurrence after TLM or open partial laryngectomy. Adjuvant radiotherapy was received by 7 patients staged pT4a or pN+.
resultsSalvage laryngectomy with adjuvant radiotherapy was required by 2 patients. The remaining patients (n = 15) had a mean tumor-free follow-up of 4 years with a functional intact larynx: these patients can eat and drink, have a closed tracheotomy, and a good voice. After 3 years tumor-free follow-up with a functional intact larynx, 2 patients died due to cardiac comorbidity at the age of 76 years. DISCUSSION: SPL is a rare but valuable option for surgical larynx preservation in stage pT3-4a laryngeal cancer.
