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

Objective: The accurate assessment of the involvement of mandibular gingival squamous cell carcinoma (SCC) is essential for determining the extent of resection and is also useful for predicting lymph node metastasis and prognosis. The purpose of this study was to investigate the factors for predicting the prognosis. Study design: We reviewed 134 patients with mandibular gingival SCC treated between 2008 and 2017. The clinical findings, TN stage, relationship between radiographical type and histological pattern, and factors affecting the survival rate were investigated. Results: The moth-eaten radiographic type was significantly associated with histologically infiltrative pattern. For all 134 cases, the 5-year OS was 89.5 %, and 5-year DSS was 93.9 %. The 5-year DSS was 95.0 % for cN0 and/or pN0 cases and 90.3 % for pN (+) cases, with a significant difference. The significant risk factors for lymph node metastasis were teeth extractions by previous physicians and moth-eaten radiographic type. Conclusion: The risk factor for poor prognosis was lymph node metastasis. In addition, teeth extractions by previous physicians and moth-eaten radiographic type were the risk factors for lymph node metastasis. It is recommended that these cases be treated considering the possibility of cervical lymph node metastasis.
