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

Oral squamous cell carcinoma (OSCC) is the sixth malignancy in the world with high incidence. The MSX2 (muscle segment homeobox 2)-Sry-related high-mobility box 2 (SOX2) signaling pathway plays a significant role in maintaining cancer stem cells, which are the origin of malignancy, leading to unfavorable outcomes in several carcinomas. This study aims to elucidate the mechanisms through which the MSX2-SOX2 pathway controls the cancer stem cell-like characterization in OSCC. The results showed that MSX2 was remarkably downregulated in OSCC and that the MSX2 expression level was related to unfavorable outcomes in patients with OSCC. Meanwhile, the MSX2 expression level was lower in the CD44
