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

ENT/phoniatrics specialists are frequently the primary reference persons for patients who have problems with the professional use of their voice. Singers show the highest risk factors for voice disorders among all professional voice users. The treatment and care of singers requires specific knowledge and competence of the physician, as well as a treatment setting adapted to the needs of this special group of patients, whose existence depends on the use of their voice. To some extent, evidence based concepts can be taken into account when treating professional singers. In cases for which no concepts have yet been developed and evaluated, recourse to clinical experience is necessary. In the present paper, current concepts for the treatment of singers are discussed on the basis of scientific publications and on long-standing experience of consultations in musician's medicine and ENT, under the aspects of diagnosis, therapy as well as prevention, taking into account the most frequent voice problems in professional singers.
