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

objectivesIt has been determined that cigarette is a risk factor for squamous cell carcinomas of the oral cavity, esophagus, and larynx. We aimed to investigate the role of histopathological diagnosis of the lesion in smoker patients with vocal cord lesion on smoking cessation rates and to determine strategies to help them quit smoking.

methodsIn this prospective clinical study, we included 182 (112 male, 70 female) smoker patients who underwent direct laryngoscopy and biopsy due to premalignant (dysplasia) or benign (polyp, leukoplasia, nodule) vocal cord lesions between July 2014 and December 2017 at our clinic. Smoking habits (ex-smoker, current smoker) of all smoker patients were questioned at least 6 months postoperatively, and postoperative smoking cessation rates were compared.

resultsWhen the smoking cessation rates of the patients with benign and premalignant vocal cord lesions were evaluated, the smoking cessation rate of the patients with premalignant vocal cord lesions was 3.45 times higher than that of the patients with benign vocal cord lesions (OR, 3.45; 95% CI, 1.76-6.74) (p<0.001). The postoperative application rate of the patients to smoking cessation outpatient clinics was low (6%). Male patients with premalignant lesions were more likely to quit smoking than female patients (p=0.001).

conclusionPatients with premalignant vocal cord lesions had higher smoking cessation rates. Premalignant vocal cord lesions require clinical follow-up and treatment because of the risk and potential for their transformation into in situ or invasive laryngeal carcinomas.
