The Role of Peritumoral Depapillation and Its Impact on Narrow-Band Imaging in Oral Tongue 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
A recent study reported that the occurrence of depapillated mucosa surrounding oral tongue squamous cell carcinomas (OTSCC) is associated with perineural invasion (PNI). The present study evaluates the reliability of depapillation as a PNI predictor and how it could affect narrow-band imaging (NBI) performance. This is thus a retrospective study on patients affected by OTSCC submitted to radical surgery. The preoperative endoscopy was evaluated to identify the presence of depapillation. Differences in distribution between depapillation and clinicopathological variables were analyzed. NBI vascular patterns were reported, and the impact of depapillation on those was studied. We enrolled seventy-six patients. After evaluation of the preoperative endoscopies, 40 (53%) patients had peritumoral depapillation, while 59 (78%) had a positive NBI pattern. Depapillation was strongly correlated to PNI, 54% vs. 28% (
