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

introductionModern advances in endonasal endoscopic surgery have expanded its utility in the management of malignant sinonasal tumours, and the degree to which cases are eligible. Knowledge of the indications, inclusion and exclusion criteria and imaging workup that empowers judicious patient selection is essential. This article discusses the endoscopic resection of malignant sinonasal tumours.

conclusionStudies describing the impact of patient quality of life will surely affect the fate of endoscopic resection, but the current trend suggests that this technique stands to replace an open approach when outcomes are similar. Combined craniofacial/endoscopic and craniofacial-only approaches to sinonasal malignancy remain an important option in the management of complex disease.
