Decision Support for Oropharyngeal Cancer Patients Based on Data-Driven Similarity Metrics for Medical Case Comparison.
Article in Diagnostics (Basel, Switzerland), 2022. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 papers, 1 of them a synthesis that pooled 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.
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
Making complex medical decisions is becoming an increasingly challenging task due to the growing amount of available evidence to consider and the higher demand for personalized treatment and patient care. IT systems for the provision of clinical decision support (CDS) can provide sustainable relief if decisions are automatically evaluated and processed. In this paper, we propose an approach for quantifying similarity between new and previously recorded medical cases to enable significant knowledge transfer for reasoning tasks on a patient-level. Methodologically, 102 medical cases with oropharyngeal carcinoma were analyzed retrospectively. Based on independent disease characteristics, patient-specific data vectors including relevant information entities for primary and adjuvant treatment decisions were created. Utilizing the
