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

New studies and literature continue to emerge on the management of mucositis secondary to cancer therapy. The evidence-based clinical practice guidelines for mucositis were first published in 2004 and updated in 2007 and 2014 by the Mucositis Study Group of the Multinational Association of Supportive Care in Cancer/International Society of Oral Oncology (MASCC/ISOO). The existing 2014 guidelines for mucositis are being updated in line with new literature to inform clinical practice. This paper describes the materials and methods employed for the comprehensive updates to the guidelines for managing mucositis.
