1 · What the graph read from it

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.

2 · The registry

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

backgroundThis research aimed to investigate the prognostic factors of oral squamous cell carcinoma (OSCC), especially the role of age.

methodsA total of 33,619 cases of OSCC were received from the Surveillance, Epidemiology, and End Results (SEER) database during 2005-2015. Kaplan-Meier curves of 5-year overall survival rates and 5-year cancer-specific survival rates were performed, and univariate and multivariate Cox regression analyses as well as competing risk model were used to help understand the relationship between various factors and mortality of OSCC.

resultsCompared to 18-39-year-old group, the older age was an important predictor of worse prognosis. The multivariate analysis of overall survival (OS) was 50-59 years (HR, 1.32; 95% CI 1.17-1.48; p ≤ .001), 60-69 years (HR, 1.66; 95% CI 1.42-1.87; p ≤ .001) and 70 + years (HR, 3.21; 95% CI 2.86-3.62; p ≤ .001), respectively, while the specific value of competing risk model was 60-69 years (HR, 1.21; 95% CI 1.07-1.38; p = .002) and 70 + years (HR, 1.85; 95% CI 1.63-2.10; p ≤ .001). In addition, female gender, unmarried, Blacks, tumor in floor of mouth, size and higher Tumor Node Metastasis (TNM) classification were also other predictors that signify significant clinically deterioration of OS/cancer-specific survival (CSS).

conclusionsOur research revealed that age was an important factor in explaining the difference of survival in the whole process of OSCC. It is suggested that we should pay attention to the influence of age on diagnosis, treatment and prognosis in the clinical process.
