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

Background: Multiple primary squamous cell carcinomas (MPSCs) of the oral cavity are very uncommon in clinical practice. This study describes the clinical features, imaging, and treatment characteristics of the oral cavity with MPSCs at the same time of diagnosis in our center. Besides, we review the literature and prior studies on MPSCs. Study design: A retrospective, descriptive study from January 2019 to December 2021 was conducted on seven patients with MPSCs of the oral cavity at the time of their first diagnosis. Evaluation of the patient's characteristics, the treatment plan, the response to treatment, and the overall survival (OS). Results: Seven male patients ranging in age from 43 to 70 years (Mean: 53.5). Positron Emission Tomography/Computed Tomography (PET/CT) revealed a significantly increased standardized uptake value (SUV) in the index tumor (SUVi = 15.76 ± 1.96). The index tumor is often staged T3, T4; whereas the synchronous tumor is typically staged T1, T2. All patients had concurrent chemoradiotherapy (CCRT) and achieved a partial response in all cases. Mean OS was 14.71 ± 11.85 months. Conclusions: MPSCs of the oral cavity at the time of diagnosis are uncommon and associated with a poor prognosis for patients. Comprehensive clinical examination, combined imaging diagnostics, with PET/CT being critical for detecting the second lesion, particularly in patients with an advanced index tumor.
