Spindle Cell Squamous Cell Carcinoma of Head and Neck Region: a Clinicopathological and Immunohistochemical Study.
Article in Indian journal of surgical oncology, 2021. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 8 papers.
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
Spindle cell squamous cell carcinoma (SCSCC) represents a rare, dedifferentiated form of conventional squamous cell carcinoma (SCC) with propensity for head and neck. Morphological heterogeneity of this tumor poses significant diagnostic challenge for pathologists. This study aimed to evaluate detailed morphological and immunohistochemical (IHC) characteristics of a series of SCSCC cases. All head and neck SCSCCs diagnosed over seven years were retrospectively analyzed to assess morphological features in detail with evaluation of possible differential diagnoses. Elaborate IHC panel was performed in each case. Eleven cases (8 males, 3 females) were included. Most patients were in 5th to 7th decade. Oral cavity (
