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

Most patients with head and neck cancers struggle with their treatment, particularly those with recurrent cancer. However, there is no consensus on effective treatments for recurrent head and neck cancer. Recurrent cases are often challenging to treat because performing both reirradiation and surgical intervention can occasionally be difficult. This report describes the effective cisplatin intra-arterial chemotherapy with oral S-1 for a recurrent case of maxillary gingival cancer (rT4bN1M0, rStage ⅣB). The patient who had undergone chemoradiotherapy 13 years ago and achieved complete response (CR) was referred to us due to recurrence. His recurrent lesions were located on the left maxillary bone, and a metastatic cervical lymph node was detected. We approached the feeder of the locoregional recurrence site using Seldinger's technique and repeated the cisplatin intra-arterial chemotherapy 5 times. As a result, we achieved a complete response, including
