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

Lymphangiogenesis makes an important contribution to the tumour microenvironment (TME), but little is known about this in oral squamous cell carcinoma (OSCC). Archival formalin-fixed paraffin-embedded specimens (28 OSCC, 10 inflamed and 6 normal oral mucosa controls) were processed using immunohistochemistry (IHC) with antibodies against lymphatic markers D2-40 (podoplanin), LYVE-1, VEGFR3 and Prox1. After the endothelial cells had been highlighted by the various markers for lymphatic endothelium, the positive stained cells and vessels were identified and counted in a systematic manner to determine microvessel density. Double-labelling immunofluorescence (DLIF) was used to investigate the specificity of D2-40 and LYVE-1 to lymphatic endothelial cells (LECs) as opposed to blood ECs. There was higher D2-40 and Prox1 lymphatic vessel density (P = .001) in the OSCC group when compared with both control groups. Some malignant keratinocytes expressed lymphatic markers, as did a much smaller number of epithelial cells in the control groups. DLIF showed that no vessels co-expressed D2-40/CD34 or LYVE/CD34. Some D2/40
