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

Head and Neck Squamous Cell Carcinoma (HNSCC) ranks sixth in incidence and seventh in cancer mortality worldwide. Approximately 30% of HNSCC cases are related to human papillomavirus (HPV) infection, the oropharynx being the anatomical subsite most associated with HPV infection. Traditionally, HPV-positive HNSCC has been considered to have better treatment response and clinical outcome. However, HPV-positive HNSCC is a heterogeneous group since 30% of the cases present early relapse, which implies that there are differences in molecular profiles within HPV-positive patients. In this study, we used bioinformatic data analysis from open-access repositories to compare molecular profiles differentially expressed between HPV-positive and -negative HNSCC patients. Using the TCGA HNSCC transcriptomic data, we identified a group of genes, whose expression is related to clinical outcome in patients. Our findings were validated in an independent cohort confirming that the expression levels of
