Role of Imaging and Histopathology for Predicting Neck Node Involvement in Recurrent/Second Primary Squamous Cell Carcinoma (pN-ROC Study).
Article in Journal of maxillofacial and oral surgery, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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.
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: After improvement in the treatment of oral cancers over the years we now see more patients with recurrent oral squamous cell carcinoma (OSCC) and second primary. Recommendations for addressing the neck (ipsilateral and/or contralateral) in these patients are still unclear and debatable. Methods: In this retrospective study we included patients with recurrent and second primary OSCC who underwent surgery between January 2016 and December 2021. We analysed to identify factors and better imaging modality that help predict a pathologically N + neck in these patients. Results: In our cohort of 219 patients treated for recurrent/second primary OSCC, 131 patients underwent a neck dissection along with surgery for primary, out of which 59 patients had pN + neck. Factors that predicted ipsilateral pN + status were the clinical stage (advanced) Conclusions: Patients with advanced clinical stage, Tongue + floor of mouth subsite, only surgery done previously, and histopathology (PDSCC) had a higher incidence of ipsilateral nodal metastasis in our cohort.
