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

Background: Method: We conducted a retrospective clinical case review. Results: A 59-year-old man had a white plaque on the left ventral surface of his tongue, noted during a routine dental visit. The plaque was painless and could not be removed by scraping. An incisional biopsy specimen showed hyperplastic candidiasis, and Conclusions: This case suggests that a high index of suspicion for malignancy is warranted in patients with oral candidal lesions that persist beyond 14 days of systemic antifungal therapy. Close monitoring and repeat biopsy may help minimize delays in cancer diagnosis and treatment.
