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 aim of the study is to document the long term oncological results of trans-oral laser microsurgery (TLM) for early and moderately advanced glottic cancer in primary and salvage settings. In this prospective cohort study 43 consecutive patients of glottic cancer (T1-30, T2-7, and selected T3 with mobile cords-6) were recruited. TLM was performed in these 35 primary and 8 previously treated cases. In our series, the local disease control rate with TLM was 90% (27/30) for T1 disease, 71.4% (5/7) for T2 cancer and 66.6% (4/6) for T3 lesions. The overall disease control rates after subsequent treatment for locoregional recurrences were 100% (30/30), 85.7% (6/7) and 83.3% (5/6) for T1, T2, and T3 glottic cancers respectively. The 5-years disease free survival rate for primary cases was 100% and 50% for salvage cases. The 5-years local disease control rate was 96.4% and 41.67% in primary and salvage TLM settings respectively. The 5-years laryngectomy free rates were 96.3% and 18.75% for primary and salvage cases respectively. TLM offers a minimally invasive and oncologically robust treatment option for early glottic cancer with an overall disease free survival of 100% at 5 years noted for primary untreated cases in this experience. TLM for post radiation salvage cases has however been disappointing and alternate larynx preserving option of open partial laryngectomy needs to be considered in this setting.
