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

The World Health Organization Classification of Head and Neck Tumours recently published the 5th edition. There are new entities, emerging entities, and significant updates to the taxonomy and characterization of tumor and tumor-like lesions, specifically in this article as it relates to nasal cavity, paranasal sinuses and skull base. Importantly, the number of diagnostic entries has been reduced by creating category-specific chapters for soft tissue, hematolymphoid, melanocytic, neuroectodermal, and metastatic tumors. Bone and salivary gland tumors are also not separately reported in the sinonasal tract, but included in the jaw and salivary gland sections, respectively. Repetition of characteristic entities in each anatomic site was also reduced, instead highlighting only the unique features in each anatomic site. Two new entities (SWI/SNF complex-deficient sinonasal carcinomas and HPV-related multiphenotypic sinonasal carcinoma) will be highlighted in this review, with a discussion of several emerging entities. There is a short description of updated information for all 24 diagnostic entities included in this edition to allow the reader a snapshot of current state of knowledge, but to encourage more investigation and further broaden understanding of these diverse and rare entities.
