Epstein-Barr virus-associated poorly differentiated nasopharyngeal adenocarcinoma: a case report and literature review.
Review in The Journal of international medical research, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
Primary Epstein-Barr virus (EBV)-associated poorly differentiated nasopharyngeal adenocarcinoma (NAC) is an extremely rare tumor. In this study, we report a case of EBV-associated poorly differentiated NAC in a 35-year-old man who presented with a clogging sensation in the right ear for 1 month. The first biopsy of the nasopharynx was suggestive of nonkeratinizing carcinoma with weak positivity for CK5/6 and p63. Based on magnetic resonance imaging of the nasopharynx and neck, chest computed tomography, abdominal ultrasound, and whole-body bone scan, the patient was diagnosed with T3N2M0 disease. After the patient received neoadjuvant chemotherapy, concurrent chemoradiotherapy, and adjuvant chemotherapy, partial remission was observed. However, reassessment after 7 months of treatment revealed tumor enlargement. Transnasal endoscopic resection was performed to remove the nasopharyngeal tumor. The postoperative immunostaining results were as follows: CK5/6 (-), p63 (-), MOC31 (+), and Ber-EP4 (+). Meanwhile, EBV-encoded RNA
