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

Concurrent chemoradiotherapy (CCRT) is the standard treatment for patients with locally advanced squamous cell carcinoma of the head and neck (HNSCC). Pneumonia is a significant complication in these patients. This study aims to identify pneumonia risk factors and their impact on survival in HNSCC patients undergoing CCRT. Data from the Chang Gung Research Database (CGRD) were retrospectively reviewed for patients treated between January 2007 and December 2019. Of 6959 patients, 1601 (23.01%) developed pneumonia, resulting in a median overall survival (OS) of 1.2 years compared to 4.9 years in the non-pneumonia group (
