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

Perineural invasion is a rare prognostic finding of squamous cell carcinomas that is associated with a poor prognosis. Early recognition of perineural invasion is imperative to improving treatment and lowering recurrence. Here we report the case of a 77-year-old Caucasian male with a suspicious mass on his forehead. Diagnosis confirms a squamous cell carcinoma with T1-weighted MRI findings significant for perineural invasion of the right supratrochlear nerve based on nerve thickening with loss of fat. Due to his immunocompromised status and the presence of positive margins after wide local excision, the patient is treated with adjuvant external beam radiotherapy of the nerve course. Risks of radiation-induced optic neuropathy should be weighed against recurrence in tumors that invade the trigeminal nerve.
