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

Introduction: Sinonasal mucosal melanoma (SNMM) originates from melanocytes. Currently, the main treatment methods, including surgery, radiotherapy and chemotherapy, have little effect on the recurrence and metastasis of SNMM. However, targeted therapy may be a breakthrough in treating SNMM. Methods: A SNMM patient with ROS1 fusion received 250mg Crizotinib capsule (2 times a day, 1 tablet each time) therapy. Results: The patient achieved partial remission after 4 months of treatment and complete remission after 8 months of treatment. Conclusion: Our findings suggest that crizotinib can be an option to improve overall survival and quality of life of patients with metastatic ROS1-fusion SNMM. We believe that our report will provide insights for the application of crizotini in the treatment of melanoma.
