A20 as a Potential New Tool in Predicting Recurrence and Patient's Survival in Oral Squamous Cell Carcinoma.

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
A20, known as a potent inhibitor of NF-κB signaling, has been characterized in numerous clinical as well as preclinical studies. Recently, especially in various malignant diseases, the prognostic and therapeutic relevance of A20 was investigated. In oral squamous cell carcinoma (OSCC) however, the characterization of A20 is uncharted territory. We analyzed a tissue microarray (TMA) of 229 surgically-treated OSCC patients (2003-2013). Immunohistochemical (IHC) stainings were performed for A20 and CD3; additionally, standard haematoxylin-eosin staining was applied. IHC findings were correlated with a comprehensive dataset, comprising clinical and pathohistological information. A20 expression was analyzed in tumor cells as well as in tumor infiltrating lymphocytes (TILs) and correlated with the overall survival (OS) and recurrence-free survival (RFS) using uni- and multivariable Cox regression. The median follow-up time was 10.9 years and the A20 expression was significantly decreased in CD3+ TILs compared to mucosa-infiltrating lymphocytes (MILs). In the Kaplan-Meier analyses, higher A20 expression in TILs was correlated with better OS (
