ATYPICAL CARCINOID OF THE LARYNX AND MULTIFOCAL METASTASES.

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
Neuroendocrine carcinoma (NEC) of the larynx is the most frequent neuroendocrine neoplasm of the head and neck and the most common nonsquamous carcinoma of the larynx. It usually occurs in the supraglottic area, in smoking men. We report a case of a 58-year-old woman with no history of smoking who presented with an atypical carcinoid, arising in the right piriform sinus of the larynx. During the 5-year follow-up, the patient developed metastases in the lymph nodes, palatine tonsils, parotid glands, breasts and skin. For this reason the patient underwent several surgical procedures, radiotherapy and eventually was qualified for chemotherapy. Our case shows that NEC of the larynx can have an atypical presentation. The diagnosis requires careful pathological evaluation with immunohistochemistry and a wide spectrum of imaging. The serum concentration of chromogranin A seems to be not useful in the diagnosis and follow-up of laryngeal NEC.
