Sore Throat: Can It Be Primary Laryngeal Small Cell Carcinoma?
Article in Cureus, 2022. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 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
Small cell carcinoma of the larynx is a rare form of neuroendocrine carcinoma. Clinical and radiological properties are similar to other laryngeal cancers, prompting histopathology examination. Symptoms include sore throat, dysphagia, odynophagia, and weight loss. Multiple management options have been demonstrated in the literature. However, combined radiation and chemotherapy have proven to improve survival. Unfortunately, the prognosis for this cancer is dismal, as survival from diagnosis rarely exceeds two years. In this article, we present a 64-year-old female patient who presented with a sore throat and was diagnosed with primary small cell cancer of the larynx. Despite the relapse after the initial four cycles of chemotherapy with carboplatin and etoposide, our patient responded well to nivolumab and ipilimumab and is still in remission on a six-month follow-up.
