A rapidly growing human papillomavirus-positive oral tongue squamous cell carcinoma in a 21-year old female: A case report.

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
Oral tongue squamous cell carcinoma (OTSCC) has a median age at diagnosis of 62 years. The incidence of OTSCC in young adults has been increasing, and the reason is unclear. The present study describes a case, and molecular analysis, of OTSCC in a 21-year-old female. Clinical and pathological information were collected from medical records. Formalin-fixed paraffin-embedded biopsy tissue from the patient was reassessed using standard hematoxylin & eosin staining, and immunohistochemistry was used to assess the expression of cellular p16, MutL homolog (MLH)1, MLH2, MutS homolog 6 (MSH6) and PMS1 homolog 2 (PMS2). The human papilloma virus (HPV) genome was detected by PCR analysis of the extracted DNA. The young age of the patient with OTSCC was unusual. The original pathology report indicated
