RETRACTION: Frequent Alterations of the Candidate Genes hMLH1, ITGA9 and RBSP3 in Early Dysplastic Lesions of Head and Neck: Clinical and Prognostic Significance.
Article in Cancer science, 2026. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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.
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
retractionA. Ghosh, S. Ghosh, G.P. Maiti, M.G. Sabbir, E.R. Zabarovsky, A. Roy, S. Roychoudhury, and C.K. Panda, "Frequent Alterations of the Candidate Genes hMLH1, ITGA9 and RBSP3 in Early Dysplastic Lesions of Head and Neck: Clinical and Prognostic Significance," Cancer Science 101, no. 6 (2010): 1511-1520, https://doi.org/10.1111/j.1349-7006.2010.01551.x. The above article, published online on 19 May 2010 in Wiley Online Library (http://onlinelibrary.wiley.com/), has been retracted by agreement between the journal Editor-in-Chief, Masanori Hatakeyama; the Japanese Cancer Association; and John Wiley & Sons Australia, Ltd. A third party contacted the journal with concerns about duplicated images in the figures. Following an investigation, multiple duplications were found throughout Figures 2A, 3B, 4B, and supporting information Figure 2. Additionally, portions of some figures were duplicated in later articles by some of the same authors: Figure 2A in Dasgupta et al. 2016 (https://doi.org/10.2217/fon-2016-0289); Figures 2A and 3A in Ghosh et al. 2011 (https://doi.org/10.1245/s10434-011-1991-x); and Figure 3A in Bhattacharya et al. 2013 (https://doi.org/10.1245/s10434-012-2715-6). Due to the scope of the errors, the editor has lost confidence in the results reported, and therefore the article must be retracted. The authors have been informed of this decision.
