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
purposeLaryngeal chondrosarcoma is a rare tumor that mostly affects the cricoid cartilage. The aim of this study was to compare outcomes between the various treatments of this pathology as there are no official guidelines for this pathology.
methodsA retrospective analysis of the pathology database of nine French tertiary care centers was conducted. Outcomes of patients treated by total laryngectomy were compared with those treated by more conservative approaches (endoscopic debulking, median thyrotomy, partial laryngectomy). Two Kaplan-Meier survival analyses were performed: one to assess the overall survival rate and the other to assess laryngeal preservation over time.
resultsA total of 43 patients were enrolled: 12 with total laryngectomy as the initial treatment, and 31 who initially underwent laryngeal-preserving treatment. With conservative treatment, laryngeal function was preserved in 96% and 75% of patients at 1 and 5 years, respectively. Conservative treatment did not reduce the overall survival rate.
conclusionThese results suggest that laryngeal preservation should be considered as the initial treatment in cases of laryngeal chondrosarcoma.
