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

introduction and importanceOncocytic cysts are benign lesions seldom found in the region of the larynx. The phenomenon leading to their appearance is currently not well known but could be linked with aging and smoking. This article describes the case of a patient in whom a laryngeal oncocytic cyst was found. CASE PRESENTATION: A 52-year-old man presented during a screening for upper aerodigestive tract cancer with a lesion on the anterior third of the left vocal cord. He reported no symptoms but had tobacco use. Other medical history was unremarkable. Laryngoscopy revealed a cyst arising from the left vocal cord. It was excised with CO CLINICAL DISCUSSION: Laryngeal oncocytic cysts are unusual lesions which can appear with different types of symptoms or with no symptoms. They are formed with oncocytes, with eosinophilic cytoplasm and dark nuclei. Oncocytic cysts have generally no recurrence, but follow-up care is required for mechanisms of such lesions are not well known. Metaplasia in this type of lesions would be caused by physiological exhaustion and inflammation.
