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

Squamous cell carcinoma is the most common primary malignancy of palatine tonsils, and usually it is associated with smoking, alcohol consumption, and human papilloma virus infection. Metastatic tonsillar carcinoma is extremely rare with range between 0.8% and 1% of all tonsillar carcinoma, and most cases emerge from the skin, kidney, lung, stomach, and breast. To the best of our knowledge, metastatic involvement of the palatine tonsil originating from urinary bladder carcinoma has not been previously reported in the literature. We present a 72-year-old male with locally advanced urinary bladder cancer, subsequently diagnosed with metastatic palatine carcinoma. Histopathology confirmed urothelial carcinoma sparing lymph nodes. The patient died due to cardiac condition after 8 months of his diagnosis. Metastatic tonsillar cancers are extremely rare, especially from unexpected tumors such as urinary bladder cancer.
