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

Background: There have been many disputes about the definition, diagnosis, therapy, and prognosis of collision tumours. Case Summary: We describe a rare patient with a collision tumour consisting of high-grade neuroendocrine carcinoma (NEC) and squamous cell carcinoma (SCC) in the right nasal cavity and paranasal sinus. She received surgery, concurrent chemoradiotherapy, and then two cycles of palliative chemotherapy. Follow-up at 26 months after diagnosis showed that this patient experienced a complete response with no signs of recurrence or metastasis. A literature review of previous 27 cases diagnosed with collision tumour of NEC and SCC in the head and neck was also undertaken. Conclusion: It is highly challenging to manage collision tumours because these are two morphologically and etiologically distinct tumours. Well-designed multimodality therapy including surgery and chemoradiotherapy might lead to a long survival in these patients.
