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

Chondrosarcoma of the larynx is rare accounting for approximately 1% of laryngeal cancers; clear cell subtype is a rare variant. Given the low risk of occult nodal disease, they present a unique opportunity to maximise tissue preservation in order to optimise both recovery and long-term functional outcomes. We present a case of laryngeal clear cell chondrosarcoma causing critical airway obstruction. An emergency tracheostomy was performed and mapping biopsies were taken. The tumour originated from the cricoid and extended into both arytenoid superstructures precluding cricotracheal resection. A modified narrow-field laryngectomy was performed, preserving all pharyngeal mucosa and neurovascularly intact infrahyoids. Organ preservation surgery is preferred in the management of laryngeal chondrosarcoma. If laryngectomy is required, the surgeon must ensure that all uninvolved, functional tissue is preserved carefully to improve swallow and voice outcomes postoperatively. We describe a novel technique used to achieve this outcome.
