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

Oral squamous cell carcinoma (OSCC) shows a high incidence and is associated with a higher rate of mortality, particularly in developing countries. Although the development of treatment strategies has been remarkable, the 5-year survival rate remains low (often <50%). Surgery and chemoradiotherapy are the standard treatments; however, there are limited factors that can predict metastasis. Liquid biopsy is promising in treating various cancers, including OSCC. In previous studies on OSCC, associations were identified among circulating tumour cell clusters, cell-free DNA (cfDNA) size/quantity and prognosis. The present study aimed to explore the role of CDKN2A and TP53 in OSCC using immunohistochemistry. Next-generation sequencing analysis of both cfDNA and tissues from two patients with poor prognoses was performed, and two common mutated genes,
