1 · What the graph read from 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.

2 · The registry

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

High incidence of oral cancer is primarily due to ongoing tobacco epidemic. In this work, synchronous luminescence spectroscopy (SLS) has been used to characterize and discriminate oral cancer tissue. Spectral deconvolution method is employed to compute the fluorescence intensity, peak wavelength, and full width half maxima for different endogenous fluorophores. The fluorescence measurements were made on 21 normal and 88 oral squamous cell carcinoma biopsy tissues. Besides, variations in relative concentration of collagen, NADH, and FAD, peak shifts and broadening of peaks are observed for tryptophan, NADH, and FAD, in oral cancer tissues indicating both biochemical and micro environmental changes at cellular level. Linear discriminant analysis showed that oral cancer tissue is discriminated with a sensitivity and specificity of 100% and 95.2% respectively.
