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

objectivesThis study aims to evaluate factors related to quality of life of patients with oral cancer.

methodsCNKI, Wanfang, VIP, CBM, Pubmed, Medline, Web of Science, Embase, and The Cochrane Library were searched up to May 2023 for studies that evaluated the quality of life of patients with oral cancer. All the included studies were independently selected, extracted, and rated by two researchers, and results are summarized by qualitative analysis.

resultsTwenty-four articles on 2 717 patients were included. Factors related to the quality of life of patients with oral cancer mainly included age, tumor TNM stage, radiochemotherapy, and gender, which could be summarized into three aspects: personal factors, disease-related factors, and surgical factors. More than five studies reported on the analysis of age, gender, tumor TNM stage, pathological stage, neck dissection method, marital status, recurrence, smoking, education level, etc. The results are relatively consistent.

conclusionsThe incidence of oral cancer increases, and many factors affected the quality of life. The included literature is a cross-sectional study, and the sample size is limited. The causal relationship between relevant factors and quality of life should be verified using large sample sizes.
