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

Adenoid cystic carcinoma (AdCC) is a relatively rare malignancy of head and neck sites such as the salivary glands, lacrimal gland, sinonasal region, and pharynx and may arise in other exocrine glands. The oncologic event in AdCC is the translocation between MYB proto-oncogene transcription factor (MYB) and nuclear factor I/B (NFIB) resulting in t(6;9)(q22-23;p23-24). We carried out a preliminary evaluation of MYB-NFIB translocation by fluorescence in-situ hybridization on seven archived formalin-fixed paraffin-embedded tissues of AdCC of Nigerian patients and its clinicopathologic features. Only 3 of the 7 cases were successfully hybridized, all featuring MYB-NFIB translocations with a range of 14.7-83.3% of translocated cells in 60 cells examined. The 3 translocation positive cases were located in the maxillary sinus, buccal mucosa and parotid. Their morphologic appearances were cribriform-solid (1) & cribriform (2) and classified as grades III (1) & I (2), respectively. These patients may potentially benefit from MYB-targeted anti-neoplastic therapy.
