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
introductionThe association between the expression of HIF-1α in the laryngeal carcinoma and the prognosis of disease is quite well documented, but the significance of HIF-1α C1772T polymorphism and its relation to disease phenotype have to be clarified. The aim of this study was to investigate the influence of C1772T polymorphism on the clinical-pathological characteristics and disease-free survival after initial surgical treatment of patients with laryngeal carcinoma. MATERIALS AND
methodsThe prospective cohort study included 65 patients with laryngeal carcinoma. Two representative tumor tissue specimens were taken in each patient during surgery; 1 specimen was used to asses HIF-1α C1772T polymorphism and the other 1 to determine the immunohistochemical expression of HIF-1α, VEGF, as well as CD 34 proteins. The comparison of polymorphism frequency between study and control population was conducted by collecting a 5 mL of peripheral venous blood samples in each subject.
resultsClinicopathological characteristics of laryngeal carcinoma didn't affect the expression of hypoxia-related biomarkers, such as HIF-1α, VEGF or MVD. The statistically significant association between HIF-1α and VEGF expression was found (
conclusionHIF-1α C1772T polymorphism was significantly associated with worse disease-free survival which nominates it as a predictor of laryngeal carcinoma relapse. The preoperative assessment of hypoxia-related biomarkers should be used in everyday practice in order to determine the treatment modalities for laryngeal carcinoma.
