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

Alleviation of physical complaints through pain management and symptom control represents an essential part of a palliative treatment concept. Persistent cancer pain in palliative care leads to a significant reduction in quality of life. Evaluation of pain on the basis of a detailed pain history allows recognition of the types of pain and initiation of a corresponding effective pain therapy. The basis of cancer pain therapy in palliative patients is transdermal and oral administration of long-acting analgesics according to a fixed time schedule. Especially important is the detection and treatment of breakthrough pain. For this form of pain, sufficiently effective analgesics with a fast effect are available. Palliative otorhinologic (ENT) patients often pose a major challenge to their treating physicians, as advanced oropharyngeal tumors are often associated with dysphagia. The following article presents an overview of the possibilities of drug-based cancer pain therapy in palliative ENT patients.
