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: The quality of life of head and neck cancer patients is significantly impacted. Bibliometric analysis is crucial to get the scholarly landscape, figuring out the research area related to quality of life among head and neck cancer patients. Objective: To use network visualization mapping to perform a bibliometric analysis of the quality of life among head and neck cancer patients. Methods: A literature search was done using the Scopus database. The searched keywords among papers included the amalgamation of Results: A total of 366 articles met the predefined eligibility criteria and were selected for analysis. The selected papers were published in 57 journals between 1983 and 2024. The results provide insightful information on there being a maximum of 25 articles in 2022 and the highest citation count of 1,683 in 2001. Among 52 countries, the United States was the leading contributor, having published 75 articles. The top contributing institution was Liverpool University Hospital, Aintree, United Kingdom, with four articles. Roger Simon was the author with the most potential, and Conclusion: The current bibliometric analysis identified the scholarly impact and characteristics of articles, which provide researchers and policymakers with baseline data to frame research strategies for improving quality of life among head and neck cancer patients.
