The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. It is linked to trial NCT05950737 (Sentinel Node Biopsy in Early Oral Cancers a Tertiary Cancer Centre Experience), which is not on this map. Cited by 13 papers, 2 of them syntheses 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.

Abstract
The aim of this study was to systematically evaluate the diagnostic value of the sentinel lymph node biopsy (SLNB) for cT1/T2N0 tongue squamous cell carcinoma (TSCC) patients. A comprehensive and systematic literature review was performed by searching the Embase and PubMed databases for English language articles published up to December 2016. The pooled overall sentinel lymph node (SLN) detection rate, sensitivity and negative predictive value (NPV) were used to evaluate the diagnostic value of SLNB which used neck dissection or follow-up as a reference test.
