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

Radiology has always been an important component in the evaluation of patients with head and neck cancers. Images that are appropriately acquired and systematically interpreted provide comprehensive information on local, regional, and distant disease extent. This impacts treatment decisions for primary or recurrent disease, and aids in prognostication and patient counselling. The recent significant advances in technology and instrumentation for treatment of head neck cancers have taken place in parallel with an increasing sophistication in radiodiagnostic systems. This is especially true for laryngeal neoplasms where there is now greater focus on functional outcomes and personalised treatment, thus expanding the scope and value of imaging. PURPOSE: To formulate evidence-based guidelines on imaging for cancers of the larynx, from diagnosis and staging to monitoring of disease control after completion of treatment. METHODS AND MATERIALS: A multidisciplinary analysis of current guidelines and published studies on the topic was performed.

resultsOn the basis of evidence gathered, guidelines were drawn up; optimal suggestions were included for low-resource situations.

conclusionThese guidelines are intended as an aid to all clinicians dealing with patients of laryngeal cancers. It is hoped that these will be instrumental in facilitating patient care, and in improving outcomes.
