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

purposeThe aim of this study was to analyze the clinical features of BSCC in the oral cavity, diagnosed over 31 years of service in oral pathology, and make comparisons with the data reported in the literature.

methodsData regarding gender, age, clinical presentation, anatomical location, symptoms, evolution time, size of lesion, and use of alcohol and tobacco from cases of BSCC were collected. Additionally, we conducted a review of BSCC studies from searches in three electronic databases.

resultsAmong 24,570 oral biopsies, 7 (0.03%) were BSCC and represented 0.8% of oral squamous cell carcinoma (n = 875). All cases occurred in males, and the prevalent affected age was the sixth decade (60%). Ulcers occurred in all cases, with the majority showing no symptoms (71.4%). The tongue (30.8%), alveolar ridge/gingiva (30.8%), and floor of the mouth (23.1%) were the anatomical locations affected. The literature review indicated a total of fifteen publications, reporting 214 cases of BSCC. Males (76.7%) in the seventh (53.3%) decade of life were most affected. According to the cases with adequate information, symptomatic (90.0%) ulcers (80.0%) in the floor of the mouth (42.1%), with a mean size of 2 cm and the mean evolution time of 1.5 to 18 months were the most seen. Association with tobacco and alcohol use, when noted, was 50.0%.

conclusionThe features presented in this study are more similar than different when compared with the literature data.
