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

Most oral malignant tumors are primary, and the incidence of oral metastatic tumors is low at 1%-2.4%. We report a rare case of mandibular metastatic lung cancer with multimodal imaging. A 67-year-old man presented with pain of the left side of mandible within 2 weeks. On clinical examination, swelling and redness of the gingiva of the left lower molar regions were found. Panoramic radiography revealed a mass like radiopacity on the left mandible, however, no destruction in the left mandible. CT showed metal artifact in the left mandible. On intraoral ultrasonography, the mass revealed clear boundary, hypoechoic echogenicity, homogeneous internal architecture, no vascular signals by color Doppler imaging and heterogeneous hard by strain elastography. Furthermore, MR imaging was performed. The lesion in the left mandible showed low-signal intensity and homogeneous enhancement on T1-weighted images. T2-weighted and STIR images showed high-signal intensity. diffusion-weighted MR imaging of the lesions revealed high-signal intensity, and the apparent diffusion coefficient values of the lesion was 1.08 × 10
