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

Metastases derived from primary tumours distant to the oral and maxillofacial region account for only 1% of all malignancies at that location, usually with a poor prognosis. In women, the primary tumours that most frequently metastasise to the oral cavity are breast adenocarcinomas affecting the jawbones and soft tissues (41% and 24%, respectively), followed by adrenal glands and female genital organs to the jawbones (8%), and female genital organs to the soft tissues (15%). Metastatic tumours of the mouth are a challenging diagnosis because of their exceptional occurrence. We report on the case of an 83-year-old woman who consulted for a bleeding ulcerated tumour on the floor of the mouth. A biopsy-confirmed metastasis of an adenocarcinoma of Müllerian origin. The oral lesion was the first sign of undetected cancer. The patient agreed to surgical resection and was further referred to palliative care for her symptoms.
