Advanced Esophageal Squamous Cell Carcinoma in Young Female Patient With Durable Complete Response on Treatment.
Article in Cureus, 2021. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper.
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.
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
Esophageal carcinoma is the seventh most common cancer and the sixth most lethal cancer worldwide. There are two main histological types of esophageal carcinoma: adenocarcinoma (AC) and squamous cell carcinoma (SCC). Both histological types are more common in males than females. Menopause is an independent risk factor for esophageal cancer while usage of hormonal therapy (estrogen plus progesterone) is associated with a lower risk of esophageal SCC in postmenopausal women. Gender differences have an impact on SCC incidence, however, it is unclear if gender has a prognostic value for survival. The present case report describes a young woman who developed SCC of the esophagus. The disease was diagnosed in the locally advanced stage. Definitive chemo-radiotherapy induced complete response. These findings might suggest that in young women esophageal SCC may have a better prognosis.
