p16 as a prognostic factor for the response to induction chemotherapy in advanced hypopharyngeal squamous cell carcinoma.
Article in Oncology letters, 2018. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 5 papers, 1 of them a synthesis 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.
Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract
The present study was conducted to investigate the prognostic significance of p16 (also known as cyclin-dependent kinase inhibitor 2A) in the treatment of induction chemoradiotherapy for advanced hypopharyngeal squamous cell carcinoma (HPSCC). Patients who were treated with at least two cycles of induction chemotherapy followed by concurrent chemoradiotherapy for locally advanced HPSCC were reviewed in the study. The staining results were analyzed to examine the association between the chemotherapy response and the survival outcome. A total of 45 patients were enrolled for the present study; the majority had received induction chemotherapy with docetaxel, cisplatin, and 5-FU. Following induction chemotherapy, 17 patients (37.8%) exhibited a complete response and 28 patients (62.2%) exhibited a partial response. There were 11 patients (24.4%) with p16-positive immunohistochemical stains and 30 patients (66.7%) with p53-positive immunohistochemical stains. There was no significant difference in chemotherapy response, overall survival, or progression-free survival time between groups with p16-positive and p16-negative stains. Low p53 expression and chemotherapy response were not associated with each other. High p16 expression did not correlate with low p53 expression. In this study, p16 was not determined to predict the chemotherapy response for HPSCC. High p16 expression did not correlate with survival incidence for patients with HPSCC.
