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

Nasopharyngeal carcinoma is distinct from other cancers of the head and neck in biology, epidemiology, histology, natural history, and response to treatment. Radiotherapy is the cornerstone of locoregional treatment of non-disseminated disease and, in combination with chemotherapy, improves survival rates. In the case of metastatic disease stages, treatment requires platinum/gemcitabine-based chemotherapy, and patients may achieve a long survival time. In these guidelines (updated in 2025), we summarize current evidence and available therapies for the medical management of advanced nasopharyngeal carcinoma.
