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 cancers account for approximately 3.0% of all new cancer diagnoses. 18F-FDG PET/CT plays an important role in the initial staging of these cancers, especially in the detection of nodal and distant metastatic disease, outperforming conventional imaging techniques. It helps identify occult primary tumors and synchronous second primary malignancies. PET/CT findings can lead to treatment plan alterations both in surgical and primary or adjuvant chemoradiation plans. High negative predictive value at treatment response assessment provides valuable prognostic implications. PET/CT can predict outcomes at baseline and during or after treatment.
