From Chronic Inflammation to Malignancy: Molecular Mechanisms and Therapeutic Insights in Oral Carcinogenesis.
Review in International journal of molecular sciences, 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
Oral squamous cell carcinoma (OSCC) frequently develops within chronically injured oral mucosa and may be preceded by clinically recognizable oral potentially malignant disorders (OPMDs), which provide an important window for cancer interception. This review examines how etiological exposures, persistent inflammation, and lesion-specific epithelial-stromal-immune interactions cooperate during the transition from mucosal injury to dysplasia, carcinoma in situ, and invasive OSCC. Major carcinogenic exposures, including tobacco, alcohol, and areca nut, are considered together with context-dependent contributors such as microbial dysbiosis, viral infection, and immune-mediated epithelial injury. At the molecular level, inflammation-driven oral carcinogenesis involves cytokine and chemokine amplification, oxidative and nitrosative stress, NF-κB and STAT3 activation, the COX-2/PGE
