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

Metastasis is one of the most common consequences of malignant tumors, and it is one of the leading causes of morbidity and mortality. Metastatic cancers to oral cavity are extremely rare. Moreover, the true incidence has yet to be determined. Despite their rarity, they are important clinically, since they can be the first and the only evidence of spread in many situations. Breast, kidney, lung, prostate and gastrointestinal tract are the most common sources of metastases in the oral cavity. Thyroid carcinoma is the most prevalent type of endocrine cancer, yet it rarely spreads to the oral cavity. After papillary thyroid carcinoma, follicular thyroid carcinoma is the second-most frequent kind of thyroid cancer. Jawbones are more commonly affected than soft tissues. Literature research revealed that till date, 44 cases of metastatic follicular thyroid cancer to the jawbones have been documented with mandibular preponderance (40 cases). With the rising occurrence of oral metastatic tumors in recent years, it has become increasingly important to diagnose them early to avoid future consequences. We present here an unusual case of metastatic follicular thyroid cancer in the mandible of an elderly adult along with a comprehensive review of the literature.
